Exciting news—HUG has been acquired by .ART Domains Registry, the premier digital domain of the art world!

This new chapter for HUG will empower more creators than ever with tools, technology, and opportunities online, onchain, and in the real world.

Here's how and why ⤵️

Looks like we can showcase more art than originally thought at Art Night at /farcon...

So on top of: @cardelucci @rebeccarose and @kaelivanfossen, we will also be adding the works of:

@quantumspirit
@dominosmusic
@liapsart
@aoifeodwyer

See you at Art Night!

Learn more, do more, SELL more with HUG.

Introducing HUG Artist Storefronts:
An add-on that turns your HUG Artist Profile into a shop to sell what you want, how you want.

For our grand opening, you can now shop @amber_vittoria, with more artists soon... maybe even you? 👀

We just got the videos and photos from our content crew, and we can’t wait to share!

Should we create a HUG channel? We will use it to…

- Share Open Calls
- Spotlight HUG artists
- Exchange virtual hugs (it’s like tipping with DEGEN but using hugs for a little pick me up instead)
