The second-annual Zoratopia event — presented by community-led platform, Zora — was held this week during NFT.NYC. The goal of the event was to showcase the diversity present in the NFT space by featuring an array of creators who have innovated in all sectors of the NFT and Zora ecosystems.

Spanning three days of programming, Zoratopia was spearheaded by a mish-mash of influential creators, including Zora’s own head of community programming, Latashá. Kicking off with yoga and brunch on June 21 at Gaia Nomaya in Brooklyn, the first day of activities drew to a close with music and art. Headlining the slew of art performances for the day’s guests were BXB Love, Blaire WYMN, and Jem Gold.

The following day saw panels featuring industry leaders. These segments, dubbed The New Internet Panel, touched on topics such as building tools for emerging mindsets, and how diversity will play a crucial role in building the future of Web3. Each of Zoratopia’s events brought out a diverse — and at times, a predominantly non-white — audience that spoke to Zora’s mission of inclusiveness, curating events that accurately represent the NFT space as a whole. The second day also saw a photoshoot for members of Zora’s NFT fam in attendance.

On the third and final day of the event, Zora hosted what was surely one of the most sizable undertakings of all the NFT.NYC satellite events. Beginning with an NFT exhibit promising attendees exclusive (and free) access to merchandise, the day’s events segued into a raucous afterparty starting at 6 p.m. EDT: the Zoratopia Ravey Bashment. Throughout the night, influential acts like TOKiMONSTA, Iman Europe, Mick Jenkins, and Latashá herself graced the venue’s two stages.

These performances were accompanied by NFT displays, immersive art installations, and free food and drink keeping attendees flowing through the Knockdown Center in Queens, New York.
