Empowering Communities Through Action

The Initiative

Generate Dreams Arts Initiative is a nonprofit organization rooted in the belief that creativity can transform lives and build stronger, more inclusive communities.

Founded by veteran, artist, and creative leader Robin Coté, the initiative was created to uplift underrepresented voices, support emerging talent, and make the arts accessible where they are often underfunded or overlooked.

Through inclusive programs, mentorship opportunities, and community-driven events, we cultivate space for artists of all backgrounds to imagine boldly, express freely, and connect meaningfully. Every project begins with a dream, and we’re here to help bring those dreams to life.

“Art saved me. It gave me hope—and inspired me to keep going. That’s the kind of power I want to share with others.”
— Robin Coté, Founder
