Description
Richmond, like many cities across the United States, struggles with a growing number of native dilemmas. However, the most daunting issue we endure as a populace involves a lack of communication. In an effort to aid civic dialog, under the name There Once Was A Rebellion, we joined forces with Gallery5 in a socially driven endeavor known as “I Dream of a Richmond…” This campaign acted as a public platform that cultivated local concerns. It also served as a regional forum that indiscriminately allows people to express their needs and aspirations regarding the community.

In the spirit of autonomy, it is the intent of “I Dream of a Richmond…” to provide a populist perspective that brings to light a sense of universal understanding. It is the hope of both organizations involved that such a project will instigate change and showcase various thoughts in a way that is not ostracizing but empowering.
