Welcome to the Festival of Dreams!  An ongoing Santa Cruz experience that is now in its third year… and it’s going to be bigger and better than ever!  For the first time, we are proud to be partnering with the International Association for the Study of Dreams (IASD), the world’s premiere dream organization, as a California Regional Event.

Hosted by IASD and by Santa Cruz residents Katherine Bell and Linda Mastrangelo, the “Festival of Dreams” is a three-day event, April 12-14 2019 in Santa Cruz, California. We will bring together dreamers from all around California (and beyond!) and inspire local people from the Santa Cruz area to ignite and feed interest in the power of nighttime dreams. Or as we like to say, “Keep Santa Cruz Dreaming!”

The Event • Friday evening will highlight community events with interactive experiential workshops and art opportunities, live performances and psi games; Saturday, April 13 is the heart of the experience: an all-day event including invited speakers, presentations, workshops, dream groups, and special events such as dance performances, a display of dreamy short films and a pop-up art gallery. The day will be capped off with a fabulous Dream Ball on Saturday evening, so get your costume ready!  On Sunday morning, April 14th, we will conclude with a BEACH BONFIRE to enjoy the natural beauty of Santa Cruz and to cap off our time together with a closing ritual.
