City of Dreams Phase I Project – CAb [Crenshaw Arts Building]

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 the construction of three building models for a Creative Arts Center. We are very excited about this idea. The models will include:

Those of you who are familiar with our Projects may have visited CAb — the 17,000 sq. ft. creative space we jointly developed with Ericco Studio in Inglewood, CA. Phase I of the City of Dreams Project was held and filmed at CAb.

We also developed NoHo Creative Space where we collaborated with ZO and more filming of The O.D.D. Room. We orchestrated several unique and model events held throughout a suite of multi-use art spaces that allowed us to include performances, exhibitions and a Zoom Room that inspired and launched the regular creative Zoom calls now being developed by ZO Magazine. Check out Zoom With ZO for more information!

Our 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 have begun planning for the Phase 2 of our vision. This will include a search for 7 Young Visionaries between the ages of 16 and 26 to help us build the models for a New Creative Space. This new project continues where our 2D canvas left off. The new project will construct scaled models under the mentorship of an architectural firm for the 3-phase Creative Spaces mentioned above! We are now planning a unique Gala in conjunction with the project to raise funds.

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 also hope to bring these projects into real existence. We know this inspiration will help all of us strive for a world of safety, compassion, beauty, and creative solutions to the challenges that now exist. If you are interested in more information and in supporting this project, please contact us at artitude6degrees@gmail.com.
