Greetings NEARians! 
Here’s a breakdown of our project “IIMG Education Wing”.
This is a part of our total proposal for September 2022, linked here :
The education wing is our effort to build IIMG into a self-sustaining community that continues to educate and onboard artists and collectors into the NEAR web3 ecosystem.
Through this programme, we will provide in-depth courses to emerging artists about :
- Blockchain, NFTs and Web3 (focused on the NEAR ecosystem)
- Music production
- Songwriting
- Mixing and mastering
- Music and NFT marketing
- Instruments (guitar, piano, etc.)
and much more.
We’re currently speaking with indie artists, music producers, audio engineers and musicians to get them onboard to teach emerging artists.
We have also reached out to established artists to organise workshops with them where they will speak to the attendees about their journey as an artist and help them with a wider range of insight.
All of these courses and workshops will be monetised and this is our first step to eventually allow IIMG to be self-sustainable.
We will use the funds for
teachers and employees : $250
creating the course content and social media creatives : $150
We are inclined to organise these workshops in the metaverse, and personally onboard each attendee to the NEAR web3 ecosystem.
Total budget for this activity : 400 USD
