The Sandy Hook Permanent Memorial Commission welcomes architects to design a permanent memorial that honors and remembers the 26 lives lost at Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012.
The Sandy Hook Permanent Memorial Commission, on behalf of the Board of Selectmen of the Town of Newtown, Connecticut, invites all interested designers, including but not limited to landscape architects, architects, and artists to apply as an individual or a team. Emerging design professionals are encouraged to submit a design.
The memorial will be a public destination that provides an inspirational setting in which to remember the victims of the tragic event that shocked the Newtown community and the world. The design must respond to and respect the existing natural conditions and must provide a peaceful, contemplative environment. Designers are expected to include a high level of ecological awareness in proposed design elements as well as the intended materials and methods for construction.
Complete details for submitting a design, registration, and intent to submit are available online.
