Lots of new names in this show, and let me tell you, the work is really great! As you might imagine, the response to this theme has been incredibly diverse. With plenty of sexy, scary, sad, mysterious and down right strange work in the show, there is sure to be something intriguing for everyone, so get psyched and come on down to share your dreams!
AND FYI... The Dreams show is a FUND RAISER for Launch Pad
As we approach our third anniversary this December, the financial realities of keeping Launch Pad open are making it difficult to keep going. You can help us continue to bringing you great art and a free, all ages community space by buying work at this show, as the participating artists are giving Launch Pad 40% of the sale price, rather than the usual 25%. You are also welcome to make a donation at the bar (checks can be made out to Launch Pad Gallery) or find a volunteer to use your VISA/MC. Every little bit helps!

Hi Erika,
I don't really know how to draw hands either (the magic of collage...your site has so much info I need to take a day or two to check it out but I can say I love the energy! Beth
Hey there. Thanks for leaving a comment over on my blog. Your work is so sweet and inviting. I visited Portland a few years back and loved it. What a great place to be an artist!
