Images of Panels & Participant Recognition
After you reserve your spot, you will be asked to fill out a form, print, and mail it along with your submitted panel. Once we receive your panel we will photograph and document it. Your panels’ photograph and information with be posted on our website underneath either the Visionary or Dream Theme section. Your first and last name along with city, state, or country will be posted under the “Who’s Involved” section.
Single Dream Theme Panel/Mini Dream Theme Panel
When you are creating a Dream Theme Panel you will be provided with a list of possible themes to consider when creating your panel. However, your panel does not have to represent one of these themes. While thinking about your theme, ask yourself, “What would my dream be for a better future relating to this theme?” Your panel can be designed any way you would like. It could be very abstract or very realistic, or somewhere in the middle. See Create a Dream Theme Panel.
Can I choose my own Dream Theme?
There are no restrictions to what Dream Theme you can choose to express in your panel. You are free to dream whatever you would like. The Dream Team has simply provided some possibilities of themes to help you take that first step. However, when you mail your form in with your panel, you will be asked to circle a listed Dream Theme just so that our staff will know where to post an image of your panel. This will also help you to find where your panel’s image is posted on our website for future reference.
Size: For a Dream Theme Panel - 2 feet long x 2 feet wide (0.60960 meters x 0.60960)
Or for a Mini Dream Theme Panel - 1 foot x 1 foot (0.30480 meters x 0.30480 meters)
Represent a Visionary Panel
Visionary Panels are recommended, but not limited to, groups, schools, organizations, etc. To create a Visionary Panel, you will need
to select a designated Visionary from our list. By purchasing your visionary panel you will be the only group representing that Visionary. In creating your Visionary panel you will be asked to consider your chosen Visionaries’ dreams and influence in our history and present. In doing so, you have many different methods of approaching the creation of your panel. It is best to select a question for your group to think about. Example: How did this Visionary influence the world? How did he/she influence me? If you were standing in his/her shoes, what do you think his/her dream for a better future would be? Create a Visionary Panel. Size: 4 feet wide x 4 feet long (in other words… 48 inches x 48 inches)
Note from Jennifer: “Because of the difficulty of wrapping the Saturn V Rocket, for the first time in the IFC history, a fee is required to participate. However see Need a Sponsor or Want to Sponsor, and we will try our best to facilitate you having the opportunity to participate.”
