Welcome!
Calling all individuals with dyslexia! We’re so excited you’re interested in sharing your work at the Dyslexia Dash on October 18 (with the added opportunity at An Evening at The Carter Center on October 23).*  Whether you’re a writer, artist, inventor, or dreamer, this is your chance to inspire others by showcasing your interest, creativity, talent, and journey. Please fill out the form below so we can learn more about you and what you would like to display. We can’t wait to celebrate your uniqueness!  

🥳 Ideas for What to Share
You do not need to be present for us to showcase your item. We accept physical items as well as photos.

Authors: a book or a collection of writings, or a single short story poem, essay 
Artists: photography, paintings, drawings, sculptures, jewelry, wood carvings
Musicians & Songwriters: songs, lyrics, pictures of you playing your instrument  
Inventors: inventions, games
Other: Something else creative? Let us know—we’d love to hear your idea!

*Raffle Update 9/4/25: Items donated to the raffle will be put on display at the Dyslexia Dash on October 18 and then again on October 23, at the An Evening at The Carter Center event being held the first evening of the IDA National Conference in Atlanta. Guests will receive raffle tickets and the opportunity to win the items on display. 

🥳 The Space
 We will provide display tables for showcasing works. Due to limited space, these tables will be shared among multiple creators rather than assigned individually. It’s a wonderful opportunity for participants to meet, encourage one another, and showcase their creativity together.  

🥳 Your Information 
Please plan to include contact information or a QR code with your display so attendees can learn more about you, explore additional works, or purchase items if available.

🥳 The Display Options
After you submit this form, our Teen Board will review all submissions and begin planning the layout. We will follow up with you to learn more about your work—so stay tuned!

🥳 Volunteers Available
We will have volunteers staffing the display area, so you are not required to stay with your work the entire time. However, if you plan to sell items, please make sure a designated person is available at all times to manage your sales. 

  After you submit this form, keep an eye on your inbox—we’ll be reaching out soon with more information!
