Hello Team Near @creativesdao-council @Dacha
Nice to see you all!!

CREATIVES DAO MONTHLY FUNDING REQUEST

[Mandala DAO - Connecting Millions of Mandala Artist into Near into the form of NFTs]
Mandala DAO- July-2022

Project Council Members - @Mahima @Priyanka

Mandala art is a Sanskrit word for “magic circle”. People believed that Mandalas represent different aspects of the universe and are used as instruments of meditation and symbols of prayer most noticeably in China, Japan, and Tibet. Mandala art is very popular like other famous paintings in history.

I would like to introduce Mandala Dao.

Mandala Dao, We create opportunities for Mandala traditional artists, digital artists, and any artists interested in getting into NFTs. There is a large number of artists who are unaware and haven’t explored the NFT space yet. We at Mandala Dao want to create awareness and get them on board with us on Near Chain. Mandala is One Source of DAO that will Directly help the traditional and new artists to get into NFTs, through Workshop and sessions, ( How to Mint Mandala NFTs on @Mintbase & Paras ). Some various forms of creating mandalas include installations, music, and lights( using different sounds and noise along while passing light through mandala in a dark space), ceiling, sculptural, architecture, and murals.

Why Mandala DAO?

As we know we have so many DAOs in Near Space. With The Help of Mandala DAO, we are connecting millions of users globally and helping them to mint their mandala in the near platform. Mandala DAO is New Concept. Through these, we are empowering the artist’s artwork on Web3 in the form of NFTs.

MISSION: Mandala’s aim is to encourage and facilitate the creation of a new, independent artist in the art market by offering artists, collectives, and labels the tools and resources they need to pivot and succeed.

VISION: Our Vision is one that prioritizes the artist and empowers the community through the Mandala DAO activities. We are Building a Chain with artists and Teachers in Mandala DAO

About My Team
The journey of Mahiartforyou now known as Mandala DAO started approximately 5 years ago. Making mandala art is healing, transformative, and addictive. It’s all about finding peace in the design’s and universe’s symmetry.
From Day One, our aim is to create art accessible to everyone. We want people to feel the same sense of accomplishment that we got after doodling a mandala for an hour.
That, “I did something meditative and introspective and just maybe, I made something that looks interesting – but either way, it felt good to let go and just create without judgment.” We use a variety of mediums to create our detailed mandalas.
At Mahiartforyou, the artists are known for their artwork which helped in creating a lasting effect on grabbing the audience’s attention.

For the past few years, I, Mahima Jain, Founder of Mandala DAO, have been working on the mandala art form. I received positive feedback after displaying my artwork in the market. Now I’d like to introduce it to a new platform. I am helping people with NFT Education, expressing their Artwork in Terms of NFTs and Web3 and in Mint Base. I saw many types of mandala and mandala creators. I want to Onboard all the Mandal People in One set of DAO where they learn and earn and have their Own Platform to Start Selling NFTs of Mandal Globally.

Hello Mandala DAO, welcome to the community.

I’m just going to leave some links here for you to go through for proposals and reports with Creatives DAO.

Introductions should be a standalone post in the forum that can be linked into an overall monthly proposal then, separately. We also accept funding proposals up until the 7th of each month.

Hope this helps!
Thanks

Totally Agree @ted.iv
But we need to make an introduction very accurately and also organize the event in proper budget manner . I know we are bit Late but please Considered these proposal as we are aiming to onboard artist more than 500in Quarterly and educate them about Mandala as NFTs in Near
We already have so many artist who wan to showcase their artwork , but they are uneducated about it and they only know about Opensea which is Highly gas fees and polygon doesn’t have community . But In Near we saw the widely range and category , also aiming to make collection of 333 Mandala and mint on paras .

Thanks @creativesdao-council , Aiming to get approved and give excellent result from our first Event , THANKS

@mr_free @zubairansari07 tagging Onboarding DAO members
probably you, guys, could support onboarding part of this project?

@Priyanka is it possible for you to leave for July only onboarding activities that are not more than 500usd? and all the rest you’ll write for August with proposal that will follow Creatives guidelines

and that’s amazing!!
i’m here just because me personally i feel deeply the Concept of Mandala (as unity in creation and temporary nature of it to create more new connections) and i see here some quotes like

but the same time i can see how here is mixed all together without proper line
so i’ve seen a suggestion to make only one onboarding manifestation and show the impact in report by numbers of wallets and number of NFTs in the collection, creativity in organizing the event, etc
after it could be more clear, if there is a need of separate DAO, or it can be the project with its roadmap, goals and timelines, metrics, that can run it on other Indian DAOs according to purposes, in collaboration with Ecosystem.

you’ve requested for diversity of projects to work with, here is it :slight_smile:

@zubairansari07 if you can provide with a guide or references with definitions what is “onboarding part” exactly and kind of activities your DAO can support? it would be easier to provide with strong proposal and then same report for applicant i guess :slight_smile:

@Priyanka are you in? )

:pray:

Yeah for sure, any kind of activity related to onboarding like wallet creation, venue charges, any competition based on basic knowledge of NEAR and rewarding some new users, refreshment (if any), tshirt if needed etc. These are examples, may vary from proposal to proposal. I am sure you would post a strong proposal, please feel free to include activities that you think is related to onboarding :blush:

Quite a good suggestion here from Johanga as a starting point as the above proposal still needs some work! Seems like a great project but it will need some formatting first and we are already halfway through the month.
