Dear community members,
Please meet Golden Blue DAO, a new promotion venture focusing on creating economically sustainable music/art events highlighting the work of artists from under-represented populations.
Furthermore, we aim to take these events away from the city to the surrounding areas of Lisbon to reach new audiences and put a spotlight on local scenes and the path less traveled.
Mission
- Putting on music and cross disciplinary art events in physical spaces outside of the typical city centre venues.
- Programming and choice of all collaborators will be focused on artist who identify as female or non-binary. Or who are in other ways under represented in the field.
- This programming principle will guide our decisions but not override a quest to present the best artists and crews in spaces which compliment their art and amplify their intentions.
- introducing and educating all involved to web 3 tools and the Near ecosystem.
Schedule :
At the moment we are planing a yearly Festival called Isodea Festival and possibly a live event every quarter or 2 months. Our first Isodea Festival is currently planned for the 21st May.
