Dreams & Memories is an Online and Virtual Exhibition Free Open Call by Gallery Informal. It invites artists to showcase their unfinished sketches and scrapped or rejected artwork revolving around the theme of dreams and memories.

Gallery Informal is a project run by the Meta Space Gallery to showcase artist sketches, unfinished works or projects, rejected work or scrapped work. These works are usually not conventionally shown in an exhibition, however, they give incite to viewers or collectors who may wish to see how the artist works or the steps the artist may take into creating a finished work. In 2025 it split from the Meta Space Gallery website and became a project on its own prior to being hosted on metaspacegallery.com from 2023 to 2024.

Successful Participants:

• All successful participants will be notified on acceptance. We may ask a few questions before we accept your work into the exhibition to see if you're a good fit for the exhibition.
• All successful participants will be showcased on our new Gallery Informal Instagram account, our virtual and online exhibitions on the Gallery Informal website.
