MetaBrera: NFT thesis defenses in the Metaverse at Brera Academy

MetaBrera, established by students from Accademia di Belle Arti di Milano—Annalisa Curtarelli, Maddalena Conti, Martina Dalla Vecchia, and Sara Calandra—merges crypto art with the Metaverse in educational contexts. The initiative hosts workshops and events centered on NFT creation, partnering with cultural organizations. On March 22, 2023, at 10:30 AM, Conti and Dalla Vecchia will present their theses both in a traditional format and through streaming in OVER's virtual environments. Public details are available on social media, and attendees can earn POAP NFTs. The inaugural POAPs were distributed during Calandra's thesis defense on November 25, 2022, with additional releases planned for March 22 and October 2023. Calandra's thesis examined NFTs in cultural heritage, while Curtarelli's focused on DAOs in the art sector.
