WAC - Unlocking Web3 for the Arts and Culture
Web3 for the Arts and Culture (WAC) is a space where art professionals, institutes, technologists and strategists come together to learn, discuss, and experiment with Web3 with a special focus on the Tezos blockchain.
WAC consists of several programs designed to encourage conversations, promote learning, exploration and build with the help of experienced developers, designers and other creators.
Powered by the Tezos ecosystem, WAC is organised by We Are Museums in collaboration with TZ Connect and the Blockchain Art Directory 2.0.
WAC weekly is recurring online conversation where we exchange knowledge on the latest relevant topics on the intersection of Web3 and the arts and cultures.
