In this era of rapidly developing technology and the emergence of DAOs and NFTs within the larger scope of Web3, it can feel impossible to keep up, remain informed, and ideally stay ahead of the curve in order to capitalize on emerging trends. NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) have permanently impacted the art and music world, unlocking creative and earning possibilities for artists and teams that have generated equal hype and criticism. This 3-part course will look at the new paradigm that NFTs, DAOs and Web3 present, and opportunity for in-depth exploration and Q+A around this vast topic.  Curated and facilitated by Patrick "Patch" Twaddle, featuring special guests:

June 28th - Henry Chatfield, Web3 & Artist Strategy, HIFI Labs
June 30th - Dan Fowler, Director of Open Source Projects, HIFI Labs

This series is suitable for artist managers, self-managed artists, and music industry professionals of all experience levels. 

TICKETS:This event is free for MMF Canada Members and $125 for non-members.
