This Drop event will give collectors the opportunity to own NFTs giving them access to some of the rarest cooperatively-made artist books ever. These NFTs showcase a wide array of artistic styles and topics, from sci-fi pictures and dreamlike drawings to personal stories and day-to-day essays. With each purchase, collectors will also get a tailor-made comic book with a handpainted cover.
ArtVndngMchn is more than just a collection of art and writing. It is a many-sided community project with elements like NFTs, exhibits, staking rewards, play, and teaching. It also serves as a metaverse gathering place in the form of the ArtVndngMchn Amusement Park, a 3D virtual gallery and game space experienced through a Minecraft server. Here, participants can interact with roller coasters that ride through artworks and take part in hands-on art performances.
The project has also given to good causes, with its first three-pack launches helping MERCYworldwide run schools for underserved kids in Nigeria and Haiti.
