The Art Auction & Gallery Sponsorship Upgrade offers a prominent branding opportunity, allowing the sponsor to create a unique and artistic showcase at ETHDenver 2025. ETHDenver transforms traditional art galleries with installations that merge the physical and digital worlds, pushing the boundaries between digital art and real-world experiences.

Art Gallery Experience: In this forward-thinking vision, the distinction between physical and metaphysical objects is minimal. In the past, the Art Gallery has featured an immersive array of screens, objects, and projections. Each piece of art, whether a physical object or digital creation, was accompanied by a QR code. Additionally, a Silent Auction was held for each artwork. Artists would list their pieces for auction on a Web3 art marketplace, with bidding concluding on the final day of ETHDenver 2025.

Community of Communities: ETHDenver aims to create spaces where community members can showcase their work, projects, art, and skills. As a community-owned festival with free admission, ETHDenver relies on sponsorships to fund these opportunities for meaningful participation.

Sponsorship Upgrade Options: The Art Gallery & Auction Sponsor can choose to design and manage this space independently, covering all operational costs, or they can fund the space through an Upgrade cost in addition to their base sponsorship package. ETHDenver will provide a designated area in the BUIDLHub (available February 23 – March 2, 2025) for showcasing original artwork. We plan to also include hard walls for printed copies of artwork displayed throughout the venue.

Call for Artists: ETHDenver will issue a “Call for Artists,” inviting submissions. The ETHDenver Committee will review the submissions to select the artwork featured in the Art Gallery.
