Our deadline to register work for Dream Seeding for Compassionate Communities is coming up quick on February 14th , but there is still time to participate!!

We hope to accept late submissions informally, if at all possible.

We are happy to help, in any way we can, more artists and teachers to participate!

Also, check out more cool “art for a better world” projects going on in Southeast Michigan!

***The Detroit Institute of Arts has a “Let’s Save Michigan!” Poster Contest (with cash prizes) in association of their exhibit of W.P.A. posters from the Depression. Designs need to be uploaded to their website by Feb. 15.

***The adorable Scrap Box in Ann Arbor, which saves tons of random stuff from landfills to make into art projects, is hosting a recycled sculpture contest (with prizes) called “Dreaming of a Greener World“.  They will be hosting fun art making workshops for kids and adults on Saturdays in Feb. and March.

***Finally, the absolutely inspiring Swords into Plowshares Peace Center & Art Gallery (33 Adams St. in the heart of Detroit) will be hosting Visions of Peace opening in April, an annual exhibit of children’s art reflecting on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. Participating artists range in age from pre-schoolers to high-schoolers and is open to all schools and groups from the metro Detroit area (including some of the kids’ art from Dream Seeding). For more info see their website (& scroll a bit).  Also there is still time (until Feb 20.) to see the compelling and beautiful 13 Ladies: A Journey of Healing mixed media exhibit at Swords into Plowshares by Lilith Dorr.

Dream Seeding, for Compassionate Communities All Ages Art Show is coming to Ann Arbor!!

We are very excited to host another Dream Seeding Art Show this March 2010!

And now we are now putting the word out near and far to find art for future generations, art for better world, art for compassionate communities!

We are in the process of contacting art teachers, arts organizations, media, progressive organizations, cooperatives & intentional communities, and more to find submissions from all ages and skill levels.  We’ll be fliering around Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti and posting notices on online arts sites, & more.

All that and more all to find creative expression that somehow helps us to see a more compassionate world really can be.

If you or your organization want to participate in any way in making this Dream Seeding Art Show happen, please get in touch!

Thanks!!

Chris, from Dream Seeding
