What is your artwork about?
This amazing and colorful display is a cooperative effort of the McKinley and Beachmont schools. All students in grades 3, 4, and 5 at both schools were involved in this project. Students looked at the artist Keith Haring and investigated his style. Students then created their own Keith Haring inspired felt piece. Students were excited to use new materials and to experiment with movement. Students were forced to simplify their ideas down to simple shapes. By the end of the project students were taught how to use needle and thread, this allowed them to create movement/ motion lines on their pieces.
We invite you to take a moment to view all of the hard work and effort put forth by the community of children who spent weeks working diligently on each square that came together for this moving and beautiful display.

Dream Theme: Community/Imagination
Materials and Techniques Used: Fabric, bleach, recycled clothing, beads, thread, bedazzler. Hand sewn except for the rocket, which we had a machine for.
What is your group’s artwork submission about? Our quilt started out as individual panels depicting imagination and when we sewed everything together, it took on a new sense of community. We chose to tie everything together with a rocket since we made this quilt for a rocket.
Does your group have any ideas of other projects and/or places to display artwork?
We could hang art in many places around Madison, WI.
Right now they are renovating a library on the Capital Square. Since it is completely empty inside, there is a collaborative art show with the UW and artists in the community.
Location Ideas for other displays: Our club, public schools, MSCR, Capitol Square, Madison Museum of Contemporary Art (kids space), libraries
Participants:
Brittany Peterson & Sarah Hemm (instructors), Taleaha Carter, Esperanza Cisneros, Barbara Simmons, Erianna Washington, Jaylah Harris, Diana Bell, Desina Stevenson, and Anthony

Kansas students create art for Dream Rocket Project, The Associated Press
Art created by Kansas students will be among those wrapped around a 365-foot replica of the Saturn V rocket at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Ala. A visiting assistant professor at Washburn University helped elementary students from Rossville and St. Mary create 550 pieces of artwork for the Dream Rocket Project. A news release from the Topeka university says the Saturn V rocket will be wrapped with more than 8,000 pieces of art in 2014. Beforehand, all submissions are being displayed in venues such as libraries, schools and museums. A show is planned at the Wamego Public Library in April.

What is the story behind your artwork?
Having already facilitated the making of panels by Jeparit Primary School and Horsham Uniting Youth, I was looking for inspiration for one about women. A couple of 'off the cuff' comments by women friends and family about what they would do 'one day' when they didn't have to look after children, husband or work led to this panel.
I asked a number of other women friends and family if they would like to contribute something that they would like to do if they did not have family and work calls on their time and if money was no object. Some also provided the image or the idea for the image for me to create. I was excited by the range of 'dreams' that came out. Most were a perfect fit for the person, but some did surprise me. I looked for groupings to aid the design and formed two groups:
new places, more creativity.
These are the creative activities:
•Archaeological digs
Creative sewing
•Dancing
•Drawing

It was refreshing to realize that so many of us just wanted more time to do things that we love doing now. All of us love being Mums and do not resent the time that that takes up, and some of us are closer to 'having it all' than we realize, by being able to grab some time to do the things that we love to do — even if we do so much that we get very tired.
Within the places were three countries, all of which I had visited years ago, making me feel very
fortunate. These are the places to visit:
•A new home closer to town
•England especially the Guards at Buckingham Palace
•Hawaii especially the dancing
•Lake Mungo (NSW, Australia) archaeololgical region or the antiquities
•Scotland especially Loch Ness
•Victoria's high country in East Gioosland and the Kiewa Valley and the Mt Cole Cottage
•The World!
Another thing I realized while sewing it all together, was that most of the things in this panel are things that I would love to have more time to do too. So I left the names off the specific activities and places. Perhaps others would feel that they would like to do some of the other things too. I hoped that as others see this, they might also appreciate the pleasures in life that we have and share in common with our friend and family circles.
And for those who have places they would like to visit- I hope that they will make it in the future.
