Created at the end of 2023 in Niort, the Ô3T third place, dedicated “to textiles, crafts and sustainable fashion” launched a call for crowdfunding to develop.
But as the closing of this prize pool approaches, those responsible are worried about not reaching their goal of €10,000: “We raised 5,800 euros. Each donation is matched by the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region, which amplifies its impact! » If the threshold of €10,000 is not reached, however, the sums will be reimbursed to donors.
“Local creative community”
With this financing campaign, accompanied by rewards for participants, Ô3T wishes to acquire manufacturing machines and equipment (sewing machines, embroiderers, screen printing machines, etc.). “These tools will be made available to the local creative communityexplains Silva Sargsyan, creator of the third place Ô3T, which today has 42 members and twelve creators. This innovative space allows creators, artisans, and individuals to pool their skills, develop sustainable solutions, and work in a stimulating collaborative environment. »
