NFT Residency Program
Access to mentorship, capital, and community for underrepresented creators.
Canada's First Nft Residency Program For Underrepresented Creators
Elevate's NFT Residency Program was designed to launch NFT artwork by underrepresented creators on the global stage. Through the immersive 4-month residency program, creators were empowered to thrive in the NFT art space. The first cohort showcased their art pieces alongside high-profile NFT artists at Elevate’s NFT Art Gallery, in the historic Design Exchange, Toronto’s architectural gem.
