Culture of Dreams

The City of Dreams Phase I project was orchestrated by Artitude International, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization under the art direction of Ericco Studio. We are currently in development to take it to the next level with City of Dreams Phase II and Culture of Dreams!

The Phase I project was to encourage young artists to dream on a City-Scale level . . . for a better community, better neighborhood, a better future. If you can inspire a child to develop and envision a brighter world — they can bring it about! We hope to begin the City of Dreams Phase II project starting in 2024. This new project will continue where our 2D canvas left off and build the beginnings of a 3-dimensional city that we are hoping to get built! We invite you to join us in this exciting adventure by connecting, keeping us in your prayers and positive thoughts, and by donating. Your support and donations will help us continue to inspire young generations. We want to guide them into creating visions of their hopes and dreams in art and model forms. We know this inspiration will help them to strive for a world of safety, compassion, beauty, and creative solutions to the challenges that now exist.

Artitude’s primary and specific objectives are:

The promotion of peace and goodwill between all people through the creative arts.

Seeking out and endeavoring to provide forums for the promotion and development of the creative arts.
