In light of the defeated last prop, the DevConnect team has offered us the space at no cost to help Nouns get a spot at the Ethereum World's Fair. This will be a prominent, high-traffic, and central space within the venue.
We’re bringing the art of storytelling, onchain minting, and risograph printing together in Buenos Aires for DevConnect 2025. "The Nouns Fair: Draw ETH. Mint ETH. Print ETH." is a hands-on activation where artists will jam, draw, mint on Ethereum, and print their creations live with a risograph.
It’s part art residency, part minting lab, part print studio — and all Ethereum x Nouns.
In November, we will host an art minting and printing lab at DevConnect 2025 in Buenos Aires in partnership with the Ethereum Foundation. This creative space will welcome thousands of the 10–20k expected attendees throughout the week, showcasing Ethereum as a home for art and culture by hosting artists who merge visual storytelling with Ethereum x Nouns and risograph printing.
The minting and printing lab will operate during DevConnect throughout the week, where artists will:
And general attendees will:
We'll invite a curated cohort of at least 10 artists (because Ethereum's 10th anniversary!) to participate in a short-term art residency at the Ethereum World's Fair. A mix of established artists within the Nouns ecosystem and renowned artists in the Argentine illustration scene, helping to root this project in the local creative community.
Each artist will create a final artwork to be minted as an open edition and produced as a run of 500 risograph prints. We'll have different artists working on their creations each day, which will be printed at the end of the day, for five consecutive days. On the sixth day, we'll bring everyone onsite to participate in a free jam to close the event.
We are currently in talks with several artists and will announce the final lineup in future updates. ;) – our first confirmed artist is Kidd! ✨
The space will be fully covered with Nouns art featuring representative projects, making the space as nounish as possible. Additionally, we will install a gallery that showcases videos, illustrations, and animations of Nouns' artwork and projects.
We will create a community space designed to host Nouns builders, who can share their projects through a lightning talk, activation, or small workshop. We want to make this a collaborative space for the Nouns and Ethereum communities.

We'll celebrate the birth of a new Noun every day at DevConnect at Noun o'Clock. A celebration attended by thousands of people every day for a week.

DevConnect is Ethereum's most relevant and highly expected event of the year. We will transform the space into an art lab, where attendees will witness the creative process, engage with artists, and their art. We want to create a connection with Ethereum through the playful spirit of Nouns. We aim to bring Nouns' good vibes to the core, making Nouns the cultural and visual layer of Ethereum.
Fun fact: we’ve handed out Nouns risography prints at every edition of the Nouns Fair. For us, it’s fun to spark conversations about new technologies and creative practices while grounding them in traditional media, bringing together both worlds. Using risography feels fitting—its punk, DIY spirit of self-publishing echoes the cypherpunk ethos at the heart of Ethereum.
For those unfamiliar with risograph printing, take a look at this fantastic batch of postcard prints created by the talented team of Nouns Beyond Screens. You can also check this short video explainer about risograph printing.

We can't have an Ethereum World's Fair without Nouns.
