Overview

Students, Teachers, and Individuals from 100 countries and 50 states are attempting to create a 32,000 square foot Quilt with the theme; Dare to Dream. This massive quilt will completely wrap a 37 story, 363' Saturn V moon Rocket replica at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL.

The Saturn V which carried man to the moon is an inspiring and tangible reminder that when people from all over the world collaborate on an important mission, nothing is impossible. Participants are being challenged to Dream about their future and the future of our world. They will be considering dream themes such as Community, Science, Technology, Conservation, Space, and Peace and in doing so express their dreams through the arts and crafts.

The wrapping of the Saturn V will represent possibly the worlds largest collaborative art project. Powerful in message and in scale, the Dream Rocket hopes to inspire participants not only to dream but also to recognize their power to pursue their dreams.

How will the 50K be Used?

Budget Notes: The Dream Rocket already has contractual permission from the U.S. Space and Rocket Center to Wrap their Saturn V Rocket replica.
