NOTNFTNYC
The third annual NOTNFTNYC took place at The Canvas 3.0 in the World Trade Center on April 4th. This premier social networking event was produced by All of Us Radio in partnership with MetaBetties. It was jam packed with panels, free goodies, performers, and an art gallery curated by Forbidden Fruit.
It has been an honor to curate a gallery for NOTNFTNYC two years in a row! We invited co-curators Frvnk of Bored Minds, Sierra of Ìtàn World, and Joe of Burrito Dao to select dynamic artists from their collectives. Together, we featured a total of 147 international, multidisciplinary artists.
Take a look at the art from the gallery here.

The evening was brought to life with well-known performers like Andressa Furletti and Violetta Zironi, and innovative works by artists like The Visceral Glitch with his AR glitch art on display.
