Night of Dreams Kicks off The Pillow Fight for Life Initiative
Night of Dreams, in an effort to raise awareness for the vast numbers of people touched by domestic and personal violence, kicks off Pillow Fight for Life. We ask all artist and aspiring artist to join us by laying down their pillows and stop the fighting. Paint your pillow with art that reflects hope and inspiration. Bring them to Night of Dreams events and we will photograph your pillow art to post on our site. Donated pillow art is appreciated but not essential. We'd love to create a collection of pillows.
All donated art will become a displayed work at all Night of Dreams large events. Join us and bring your painted Pillows to our events or call to arrange your donation of pillow art, 919-363-1530 ext 3.
Watch for information on our Pillow Fight for Life Festival and Concert at Koka Booth coming this fall.
Upcoming Events for Pillow Fight for Life, see Performances and Events above.

educational sessions (example; how to build and promote the artistic
career).
