This year, IASD Arts Committee is introducing a new Online Open Dream Gallery for members and dreamers who may not consider themselves practicing artists but who create drawings, paintings, collages, photographs, or other visual responses to their dreams.

The Online Open Dream Gallery is separate from IASD’s Juried Dream Art Exhibition, our primary exhibition for artists, featuring juror selection, prizes, awards, online opportunities and exhibition of their work at the annual conference.

The Online Open Gallery is intended to encourage broader participation in dream creativity. No established art practice or professional experience is needed—only a desire to give visual form to something that emerged from a dream. It also offers members who cannot attend the conference a way to share their dream-inspired work with the IASD community.

Dreams belong to everyone, and making an image can be another way of listening to the dream.

Submissions open November 1. Details on both opportunities will be on the IASD website then.
