What is your artwork submission about?
This art piece is to help remember how important art is in all subjects, basically the primary ones. Without art we would not have the tools that are used everyday. There are music concepts in the picture to bring back the idea that music is part of art. Overall this picture is a hidden collage of reasoning and symbolism.
Did you enjoy this project?
Yes I did. This project helped explain a need for art education while presenting a unique way for drawing.
Do you have any ideas for other IFC projects?
Space programs are evolving at lightning speed, which makes it hard to predict where Earth will stand in a decade from now with technology.

Easy Classroom Kits. If you are a teacher and you would like me to mail you FREE Dream Rocket Kits for your students, please email me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and give me the name of your school and how many students/kits that I should mail to you.

Once your classroom finishes their kits then mail them back to us and we will assemble them together and they will be included into the Dream Rocket Project! (we will laminate these artworks together)

This coming week, I am delighted to be worked with 2 Kansas Schools all week long!
Rossville Grade School in Rossville, KS and St. Mary’s Elementary School in St. Mary’s Kansas.

I will be attending all of Nadine Fisher’s (Art Teacher) classes at both of these schools and will be working with 550 students total. I created these kits in which the students can quickly make a artwork in the class time and then back at our studio the dream rocket team will cut their artworks out of the construction paper and assemble 6-8 of their artworks into a 2 foot x 2 foot panel. Between both schools we may be able to assemble 68 – 91 panels!!!!

Yay!!!!!

I just received this email and it gave me a great big smile.....check out the photo!

"I’ve attached a picture of us with our quilt square for the Dream Rocket project, made at the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology. That’s me, Dr. Chris Gunter, on the left and Dr. Neil Lamb on the right wearing the square. We had a lot of fun making it and look forward to seeing it on the rocket!"
