A little background information on the organization that dreamed up this wonderful opportunity for students:
 In 2008, a group of educators and artists formed the International Fiber Collaborative (IFC), a non-profit organization with a mission to create deeper learning experiences through art, collaboration and cross-curricular themed programming for individuals and their communities.
IFC’s current initiative, The Dream Rocket Project (DRP), which was launched in 2009, is collecting 8,000 pieces of artwork that in 2015 will be stitched together to wrap a 363-foot Saturn V Moon Rocket replica at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama for a temporary exhibition.
“Through these exhibits, visitors will see the many ways that students have expressed their understanding of what research, creativity and imagination means to them,” said DRP organizer Jennifer Marsh. “By exposing students to the importance of collaboration through multi-disciplinary approaches, we hope to inspire them to feel the freedom to dream big.”

 The Saturn V rocket is 58 feet taller than the Statue of Liberty. 
So far, art submissions have been received by individuals residing in 17 countries, 46 states and 363 communities. Prior to the wrapping of the Saturn V, all submissions are being displayed in libraries, schools, museums and community centers. By 2015, DRP estimates 36,000 people will have contributed to a monumental 32,000 square foot wrap.

Congratulations to all the students for their successful participation in this series of art exhibitions and the final installation next year in Alabama!
