Would launching a six-month wearable creation contest in Decentraland be something to consider to create DAO awareness and promote the community's creators?
Once a month for six months, creators will be able to submit a new wearable creation, which the DAO community will vote on. This would be a testing period and perhaps extend the contest if proven successful.
The potential benefits include stimulating creativity within the Decentraland community, enhancing participation in the DAO, and promoting various themes that are relevant or topical. These themes could reflect real-world events, seasons, holidays, or other notable celebrations and could range from Earth (promoting nature, sustainability, recycling, etc.), Education (back to school, college, graduation, etc.), Art (music, written, painting, artists, etc.), Fall/Harvest, and The Metaverse. The themes are optional as it could be ran and any type of wearable could be submitted. Emotes to be included as well.
There are two reward options for consideration:
The winner of each month's contest receives their submission fee waived or receives a prize that would include the cost of submission.
The DAO purchases the winning wearable for a prize amount ($300-$500), and then either sells the wearable or awards them to community members that participate in governance and discussion. This second option could lead to creating a rewards system where active participants earn points or badges that can be traded in for DAO wearables.
