For ILLUMiBRATE 2024 we explored DREAMS. Who can you be when you dream? Dreams can be aspirational, exhilarating and expand what we see as possible. On March 9th, 2024, the JUMP building was transformed with color, light and interactive art and installations from local creatives and nonprofits. The building was filled with interpretations of dreams that come in all shapes and sizes; from whimsical daydreams that delight us to motivational dreams that inspire us. Everyone dreams and this event examined and celebrated this connection in us all.
Illumibrate is a free to the public, family friendly, light and color festival. This year was our first time expanding ILLUMiBRATE to a full day event to welcome more people, and in an effort to manage the crowd we asked people to RSVP with a free ticket through eventbrite. This was wildly successful and allowed for an estimated 12,000 attendees – WOW! Despite the record-breaking attendance, the event felt wonderfully spacious, maintaining a comfortable flow of people throughout the day.
We enjoyed DREAMing with you at ILLUMIBRATE 2024!

2024 RESIDENT CREATIVES
Through our creative residency pilot program, we're honored to present three local artists working across many disciplines and mediums, with upcoming installations for Illumibrate 2024: Dreams. These artists worked closely with JUMP for 6 months, teaching us about the Boise art scene and expanding our definitions of art. We hope you appreciate their work as much as we do.
DREAMSCAPES
In addition to the resident creatives JUMP collaborated with 20+ artists and organizations to cultivate a truly spectacular experience this year. Under the umbrella of the theme "DREAMS" each space in the JUMP building was transformed into custom "dreamscapes" addressing questions like: how do we dream? Can we control our dreams? Where can your dreams take you? Check out the schedule and list of artists:
