The Web3 art movement over the past few years has seen a massive resurgence of creativity across the globe, it’s like one huge decentralised experimental art school. With this exciting resurgence, we’ve seen innovations across all media art forms and creative practices, merging traditional and new digital making practices, from pen and ink, weaving to generative art, code and AI.

We invite you to drop in and join us for an informative day of discussion, debate and workshops. Join informal sessions throughout the day as we aim to help you get started with digital making and web3 art, learn about emerging digital art processes and explore web3 art opportunities.

We also encourage critical discourse about how web3 art and digital making may impact on the future of arts education, creative entrepreneurship and careers of art students.
