City Alive With Dreams is a two year long public art project of filling the city with musical interpretations of people’s sleeping dreams.The initial phase of collecting the dreams of one person a week was part of 6018North's Home: Public or Private? exhibition. The second phase transformed the dreams into artwork and poems, which became songs – since music is such a prominent part of Chicago’s heritage – performed throughout the City. If dreams, art, and culture are the soul of a city, this performance in the verdant backyard of 6018North, aims to reawaken your dreams as a source of inspiration for you as well as the City as a whole.

City Alive With Dreams is created by artist Carron Little who is an In The Works Artist in Resident for Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events. 

Artists include: The Queen of Luxuria, Richard Blakeney, Christian Cruz, Alana Parekh, Nora Sharp, and others.
