WHY CROWDFUNDING?
We are a cultural association, a non-profit organisation engaged in the production of performances at a high artistic level on a national and international level. The themes of the works produced range from topics with a social impact and interest to those purely related to the sphere of human nature. For us, the sea is a magical environment, a source of constant inspiration, essential for human life and extremely delicate and vulnerable. Therefore, we have decided to channel our energy and resources to take a step towards its preservation. We need you to make the positive impact of art on the marine environment a reality.
Help us realise FLOES - widespread festival for the preservation of the sea!
"We are like islands in the sea, separated on the surface, but connected in the deep" - W. James
STEP 1 - 5.500€ = 3 events totally organised by Indomita, 200 t-shirts, 100 canvas bags.
science + art + concrete gestures = culture and wellbeing for the community
The FLOES format will be based on this simple equation. In particular, with 5.500€ we will be able to create and host 3 cultural events organised by Associazione Indomita, in which we will propose a "talk moment" with real HEROES OF THE SEA who will recount incredible curiosities and provide food for thought on the protection of such a complex and delicate environment. This will be followed by concerts, DJ sets, performances and artistic installations. Indomita will manage the budget for the events, seeking to maximise their effectiveness and favouring environmentally friendly choices. We would like to hold the events in venues that are significant for citizens and, when possible, directly in contact with the marine environment. The first partner to host us will be the Diagonal Loft Club, a historic venue in Forlì that has always been a showcase for cutting-edge cultural, musical, and artistic events.
200 t-shirts and 100 cotton bags. By financing the production of the first batch of OFFICIAL FLOES SUSTAINABLE GADGETS you will make it possible to sell them to remove 1kg (t-shirt) and 0.5kg (bag) of marine litter through the action of OGYRE, a benefit company specialising in fishing for litter, which is active globally. We designed the T-shirt and shopper as real works of art, illustrated by TASSI (a designer from Forlì) and made by SILTED INDUSTREE (a brand specialising in sustainable clothing).
Yes, by contributing to the creation of these FLOES-branded objects, you will help us clean up the ocean in Brazil and Indonesia too; countries where the OGYRE fishermen operate in addition to Italy. Your commitment will not only be fundamental for our territory, but will also leave a positive trace in distant continents!
If, also thanks to your precious contribution, we manage to reach the budget necessary to complete STEP 1, we will be able to broaden our horizons, aiming at new exciting goals:
STEP 2 - 8.000€ = 3 events totally organised by Indomita, 350 t-shirts, 150 canvas bags + DOCUFILM!
By reaching the grandiose goal of 8.000 € collected, we could:
- Increase the production of gadgets to satisfy more supporters!
- Organise at least 3 cultural events!
- Produce a docufilm of the entire project, made by Walter Molfese's Black Aurora Films, a professional nature-loving videomaker. Thanks to your generosity, we could cover the minimum expenses for the filming. Help us make the most beautiful film possible, to tell the younger generations what can be done for our sea!
STEP 3 - 10.000€ x 3 cultural events, 350 t-shirts, 150 canvas bags + DOCUFILM + vinyl LP of Atmo's 'FLOES' music album!
By reaching the super target of 10.000€ collected, we could:
- Organise at least 3 cultural events
- Produce the official gadgets of the FLOES project
- Produce the docufilm of the entire project
- Print the 12" vinyl of the musical album "FLOES" produced by the duo Atmo specifically to support the project! With your contribution we will be able to make Atmo's music 'solid', which will be presented at the first FLOES event with a launch concert! We would print a limited edition of 200 copies, the distribution of which would contribute to the future development of FLOES.
WHY SUPPORT US NOW?
The positive impact on the Forlì and Romagna area will be materialized in the artistic, cultural and entrepreneurial synergies that will be created between the various people involved. Also not to be underestimated will be the educational value of some initiatives aimed at young people (clean-up initiatives, creative workshops, interdisciplinary cultural events, etc.).
We believe that the universal language of art can unite and inspire a growing number of people, making them part of a collective action aimed at designing a better future for the next generations.
