Our mission revolves around providing a gateway to art experiences, educational resources, and wellness workshops centered on nutrition. We utilize cutting-edge technology and community-driven initiatives to advocate for and uplift the NYC community.\n\nAt the core of Lynkable's ethos is the commitment to fostering decentralized events across a spectrum of NYC subgroups. We champion emerging artists, musicians, small businesses, community gardens, and community centers in marginalized neighborhoods, cultivating growth and vibrancy in the heart of the city.\n\nOur vision crystallizes in our dedication to amplify Web3 knowledge and blockchain utilization, showcased through collaborations with artists on innovative NFT projects. By harnessing the power of these technologies, we envision a more inclusive, informed, and artistically vibrant future for all.\n\nLynkable's impact resonates through every workshop and event, where we gather diverse data -- attendance, emails, multimedia content -- in order to gauge growth within our creative network and event spaces. Having hosted 25 events, including 8 in 2023, we've conducted interviews, engaged over 500 youth, and created a myriad of artistic expressions.\n\nAs we forge ahead with our new DAO, we're poised to elevate our impact. By immersing ourselves in on-chain interactions – from minting digital assets to voting on proposals – we're further aligning with a future where empowerment, creativity, and decentralization intertwine harmoniously, cementing Lynkable's role as a catalyst for meaningful change within the NYC community and beyond.\n\n## Funding\n\nWith the proceeds from this Gitcoin grant round, we will use it to support our existing initiatives in paying for:\n\n* Art supplies \n* Healthy snacks \n* Expanding to Queens and Brooklyn \n* Museum memberships\n\nThese expenses currently total to about $3,000 across all events and workshops.\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "lynkablemichael"}
