The evening will end with ‘Art After Dark’, after party hosted in the sculpture garden.

Following the art tour, visitors are encouraged to participate in the ‘Art Walk’ happening in Southampton – the art hub of the Hamptons, where they can view artwork by the artists in residency.

The first stop will be at the Southampton African American Museum (SAAM), founded by Brenda Simmons. “I’m proud to say this is SAAM’s 3rd year partnering with ART & SOUL: Hamptons. They have been profoundly instrumental in inviting, enlightening, and engaging visitors from near and far to the Hamptons, who are discovering the rich history of art and culture contributed by the BIPOC community”, says Simmons. Artist Alvin Clayton’s latest art collection premieres at SAAM on July 20th.

The second stop will be at the Southampton Arts Center, featuring artwork by various artists participating in the ‘Beyond The Streets: Post Graffiti’ art exhibition. Southampton Art Center’s mission is building community through the Arts, and we are delighted to once again collaborate with ART & SOUL: Hamptons and our neighbors at SAAM and Ma’s House to welcome all to the center and engage with us!” says Strassfield.

The third and final stop of the art walk will be at Hidden Gem NY, a home decor and lifestyle boutique owned by sisters Tanya Willock and Temidra Willock-Morsch. After visiting the vibrant art organizations in Southampton, a private brunch will be co-hosted by Brown Skin Brunchin’.

The festival wraps up with an opening reception to celebrate artist Alvin Clayton‘s residency at the Southampton African American Museum, which is available for viewing through October 2024.

Solis Capital Launches Verdantis.io Carbon Project Origination Platform for Central Asia

Published

on

The dedicated platform, which is focused on high-integrity carbon projects, can identify, screen, and prepare early-stage and development-stage carbon projects for potential carbon stream financing, institutional capital, corporate carbon buyers, and long-term offtake.

United States, 13th Jun 2026 — Solis Capital today announced the launch of Verdantis.io, a new carbon project origination and development platform focused on high-integrity carbon projects across Central Asia. The dedicated platform can identify, screen, and prepare early-stage and development-stage carbon projects for potential carbon stream financing, institutional capital, corporate carbon buyers, and long-term offtake.

“We are a carbon stream financing vehicle,” explained Katy Goncharova of Solis Capital. “Through Verdantis.io, we provide upfront or milestone-based capital to project sponsors in exchange for future verified carbon credits, contracted carbon credit deliveries, or a share of future carbon credit sale proceeds.”

Verdantis.io will initially focus on Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. Target categories include afforestation, reforestation, improved agricultural land management, soil organic carbon, methane avoidance, ecosystem restoration, and other voluntary carbon market projects that can meet institutional buyer expectations.

Verdantis.io is designed to turn land-based and nature-based opportunities into diligence-ready project files with clear MRV pathways, registry strategy, PDD preparation, baseline assessment, additionality analysis, leakage controls, permanence planning and verification readiness. For these reasons, the platform will likely prove relevant to companies pursuing net-zero goals that want early access to high-integrity carbon credits and project-level visibility before credits are issued.

Verdantis.io is an initiative of Qarasu Astyk, through its subsidiary Pro Carbon, with FG Capital Advisors supporting the financing strategy, structuring, and arranger role. Qarasu Astyk is a Kazakhstan-based agribusiness group with operations tied to large-scale agriculture, land use, grain, livestock, and regional agricultural infrastructure. Pro Carbon is Qarasu Astyk’s dedicated carbon project development subsidiary. It supports carbon project preparation, including AFOLU, soil organic carbon, improved agricultural land management, grassland restoration, MRV planning, registry pathways, validation, verification, and carbon credit commercialization.
