Artists in Dreamland

The Second Annual Dream Art Exhibit
Poudre River Arts Center Main Gallery

April 29 – May 16, 2009

Exhibit theme: Dreams, rich in visual imagery and symbols, are a natural source of creative inspiration for artists. While some artists use a dream to express a powerful idea in their art, others use their art as a means to explore their dreams. The pieces selected for this exhibition will provide visitors with a unique opportunity to view dream art as well as the dreams of the art makers. It will be like looking into the dream diary of the artists.

Entry requirements: Open to residents of any U.S. State, territory, & District of Columbia. Work must showcase the theme subject as well as the dream narrative. Artwork that isn't clearly inspired by a particular dream will not be accepted.

Any artwork is eligible: paintings, ceramics, fibers, digital, photography, drawings, sculpture, mosaic, and other media. Maximum dimension of any one side of a 2-D work (including frame) must be less than 36 inches.
