Nouns DAO

TD;DR

NounsDAOAmigos was invited by ETHGlobal to make the third edition of the Nouns Fair at ETHSanFrancisco this Nov 4-6, 2022. We are asking for 23.25 ETH.

Context

We are NounsDAO Amigos. We are building a Spanish-speakers community for LatAm and beyond. We’ve been proliferating the ⌐◨-◨ adding some spice and a pinch of Ñs.

We recently hosted the second edition of the Nouns Fair. An IRL fun experience aimed to proliferate Nouns at the ETHBogota hackathon. We’ve confirmed the importance of this kind of event that helps increase awareness of the DAO, onboard potential builders, and put noggles in the eyes of hundreds.

Nouns Fair @ETHSanFrancisco

Given the success of the Nouns Fair in Colombia, the ETHGlobal team invited NounsDAOAmigos to make a new edition, this time at ETHSanFrancisco! We believe it’s important to keep having a presence at IRL events like this. As we saw in Mexico and Colombia, this is a great environment for spreading the ⌐◨-◨ and growing our Spanish-speaker community.

Goals

• Make a new amigo, San Francisco
• Onboard potential contributors
• Put Nouns in the eyes of hundreds of builders

Details

Place: San Francisco, California Venue: Palace of Fine Arts Dates: November 4 - 6, 2022 Team: NounsDAOAmigos

The Nouns Fair will be a 3-day cultural experience focused on builders where they will be able to engage with others and learn about Nouns. This activation will be a localized nounish experience with photo opportunities, games, merchandise, and an NFT gallery. The proliferation of culture á la nounish. The following are examples of what happened in Bogotá and what we’ll create for San Francisco with a different flavor:

Photo-opportunity & noggles A fully Nouns-branded photo station where attendees can take selfies and full-body photos will serve as a welcoming station. We want to create a photo set where people can feel nounish and share it on the internet. Of course, physical noggles are key.

Games Two different games will be available at the place: foosball, and a traditional local game. We believe these games have a nounish feeling and will serve as an engagement factor.

Merchandise Pins, stickers, and T-shirts will be distributed as rewards for spending time and engaging with the Nouns Fair by playing games and taking photos.

NFT gallery A 5 screens NFT gallery representing local artists and some nounish representatives.

Costs and execution Given our past experiences and the recent Nouns Fairs at ETHMexico and ETHBogota, we came up with this budget to make it suitable for ETHSanFrancisco in the US. We are asking for 23.25 ETH.

Costs are approximate. ETH avg. price of 1,200 USD. Prices in red are not final and we’ll seek to reduce costs as much as possible. The difference in these prices will be returned to the DAO.

We are excited about this new opportunity to keep creating nounish experiences IRL that can be replicated in other countries. But most of all, to spread the ⌐◨-◨ in a fun way!

Transactions Due to the time sensitive nature of this proposal, NSFW has already funded NounsDAOAmigos to execute on this project. The 23.25 ETH transaction in this proposal will go to refund NSFW.
