Letter from the Bright Moments DAO (Summer 2022)
The Bright Moments Quarterly is our forum for going deep with artists, in every city we mint, to describe the thinking and methodology behind their work. Thank you for joining us in London, our fifth city, which represents the half-way mark of our journey around the world.
Bright Moments: Abridged
Since starting as a group of volunteers in California, Bright Moments has grown into an international organization with thriving communities in the Metaverse, Venice Beach, New York, and Berlin. As a traveling NFT art gallery, we host art exhibitions that explore the intersection of digital art and in-person experiences. Our next city, London, will be the fifth city and halfway point of our ten-city roadmap.
