Description

Dollhouse is known as a place of friendship and unity, where everyone – friends and newcomers can feel safe, seen and heard. My vision is to continue to operate Dollhouse at its current high level and additionally curate and create unique experiences throughout the year that are press-worthy, capturing mainstream attention and giving newcomers a reason to onboard. Background: Dollhouse has held over 100 events to date. At least three events are held consistently every week, including two music-based events and regular hosting of Beyond The NFT. The weekly Wagmi Wednesday party is enjoyed by all and stirs up the marketplace each week as people purchase wearables to fit each weekly theme. One of our recent regular events is a weekly live art/music show. Memorable community special events include DCL Prom Night, May The Fourth Party, the Babydoll Awards, and the first One Metaverse party streamed both in Spatial and in DCL. One of my main missions is to onboard more DJs and musicians into the Web3 space, with an emphasis on female and underrepresented groups in the space. To date we have hosted over 30 DJs/musicians at Dollhouse. All events have been free and open to the community. This year, Dollhouse has hosted: - Multicultural events like the the two-day Latin Festival - NFT project events such as Killabears - Virtual/IRL hybrid events like NFT BC and Holotopia Fashion Show - Multiple wearable launches for the community - Inclusive events such as the Pride Party with Baby Yors - The first official multi-metaverse event with Spatial - Branded events with Decentral Games, EveryRealm and Mixcloud DJs and musicians we have featured include : - Alison Toy - Baby Yors - Y3LDA - Elyse Rich - Evie The Cool - Sky Jetta - Mo Mami - Allis - Chris Stylez - DJ Webber Don - UnkFunk - June Jissle - GranolaBoy - Zoo Bros - Roxie J Summers - DJ Hu Dat - Soultry Dubs - AkaHorus - GucciToe - Stoney Eye - Jack Frost - Bufalo - Pansd - Abilitea - CJ Trax - K3YFLO - DJ Jacks - Beni Swift - New Girl - 0xBlnky - Mr Swe - Edolena - The Perris - VJ Deliria With the funds from this grant, Dollhouse will continue to: - be a home base for the DCL Babydolls - foster a culture of belonging and be a safe space for women and newcomers - provide high quality weekly events for the community - be a launchpad for DJs and musicians entering Web3/metaverse space Dollhouse will also be able to: - retroactively cover some costs from our first year of operation - continue to consistently operate at the same high level we have shown to date - plan more ambitious Special Events crafting unique experiences and bringing in higher profile talent to attract mainstream attention and encouraging newcomers - increase marketing efforts both in and outside the DCL community - hire an assistant to help coordinate events - hire a community manager for our discord/socials
