The DSDM encourages submissions from the community. We're excited to help your diorama-making dreams come true!

★ Guidelines

  • All materials must be properly secured

  • A link to your website (if available)
  • Dioramas are displayed for one month and then returned to the artist

★ What We Love

The best dioramas tell stories. We're drawn to pieces that transform everyday objects into something magical. Found materials, recycled items, and creative repurposing are especially welcome.

No formal art training required — just imagination and a willingness to create.
