About the event:
EKTA x Safra | March 26

We face individuals thirsting for more engaging and combined experiences. By this thought, EKTA gave birth to this immersive event. It´s one day event full of art and creation. Throughout the day you will have a hybrid program that hosts workshops, live performances, live music and a collective exhibition - photography, illustration, sculpture and painting & much more involving experiences. Here, you will have the opportunity to tattoo your first hand poked tattoo! We partnered with more than five different pop-ups, who will be allocated around the venue - fashion, accessories, handicraft and food & drink (pizza, vegan food, specialty coffee…) pop-ups.

The doors are open to a transgenerational and international audience, the ones that seek to become more intimately involved with different creative universes. To add, the event will be live streamed with the help of Left Bank Magazine ( https://leftbankmag.com/ ) an international print and digital publication that covers underground and primarily undiscovered artists.

Let’s make this artistic creation happen.

The vision of EKTA is to expand the artistic background into a broader market, into NEAR´s ecosystem, so everyone can get access to every form of art that we work whether live, online or digital (minted).

This event is just the beginning!!

Thank you for supporting us.

Hi, guys. Creatives only support DAO’s and Guilds. Therefore, you need to submit your event to a DAO that can receive your event in their monthly budget. I’m moving the tag to a general creatives.

Super cool to see more Lisbon based projects coming up!

Not sure who was your first point of contact with NEAR. As Heverton mentioned, you’d request from a specific DAO other than creatives, if this is an individual/singular event.

If you are interested in becoming a DAO, you could request from the Creatives. We have our office hour calls every Monday at 8pm GMT, feel free to hop in & introduce the project & ask all the questions you might have :slight_smile: The TG link is this one: Telegram: Contact @CreativeGuilds

You also have plenty of other DAOs in Portugal/Lisbon, in case you want to connect: Cudo, Incubadora, Arroz, Garden Collective & muti for example :slight_smile:
