Dreamers Welcome Television

Dreamers Welcome TV is a crowd-sourced online television channel for artists to share work with an all-ages audience created by Conarro and Julian Bozeman April 1 2020.

Description on DWTV::

Tune in at any hour, 24 hours a day, for live-streamed and prerecorded RELAXING and/or CALMING and/or PLEASANT content from visual artists, performers, video artists, dancers, comedians, animators, clowns, musicians, authors, poets, sculptors, culinary artists, puppeteers, and every dreamer in between! Dreamers Welcome Television is an artist-run broadcast from Dreamers Welcome in Brooklyn, NY.

Reasoning behind this project::

Following the closure of their businesses due to COVID-19, they set out to create a place for connection for community in a way that made sense to them. Artists in isolation began making work in their respective homes. All brick and mortar art spaces were closed for the foreseeable future. Families were suddenly homeschooling their kids along with trying to work. Screens replaced schoolhouses for the children. Thus, Conarro and Bozeman launched Dreamers Welcome Television overnight, which serves both the needs of the artists to share work and the needs of the families to entertain their children and themselves with something enriching that is easy to find. The plan was simple: artists submit video content for broadcast that is CALMING and/or RELAXING and/or PLEASANT. Anyone can tune in at any hour to watch something cool and enriching. The Venmo names and social handles of the artists are displayed in the TV Guide so viewers can contribute to them directly!
