"For more than two centuries, economic opportunity and upward mobility have formed the foundation of the American Dream, and they remain at the core of our nation’s identity." (bit.ly/PewTrusts_AmericanDream)

This questionnaire is both virtual and in the form of a physical mailbox where you can hand write or draw a picture of what your dream is and drop it through the mailbox slot, please see link below for locations.

This survey was created by visual Artist, Amy Ritter, rooted in her mobile home upbringing and interests in social mobility; stigma and shame around home; and a self-reflective curiosity about the working-class body. This survey is the next step in a wider exploration of class in the US, contextualized by our nationwide affordable housing crisis and how the American Dream shapes who we are.

This survey is anonymous. The information will be used for a forthcoming artist book about the American Dream and for identifying community concerns to share with local legislation. It’s my hope to be able to share the thoughts of Americans from all over the country so that we can begin to visualize our needs and the needs of others.
