Update: Next Online Show of
Dream-Inspired Art
ASD will not be sponsoring a web show of
dream-inspired art in 2004. Our next web show will be in 2005, and we
will probably move to a biennial schedule thereafter. We are also
planning a gallery show in Berkeley, California, to coincide with our
annual conference in June 2005. The deadline for entries for both shows
will be around the end of March 2005. Please check the ASD web site next
spring for the latest details and entry information.
