Deadline for 1 October Memorial Creative Expressions

The 1 October Memorial Committee invites anyone with an idea or design concept for a permanent memorial and any professional artist with an interest in contributing to the creation of a memorial, but without the team necessary to participate in the RFQ process, to respond to the Call for Creative Expression by October 31, 2022 (5 p.m. PT).

Everyone is invited to submit, regardless of age, relationship to the tragedy, location, or any other consideration. This participation pathway is intentionally designed to be an easy way to express your idea or design concept for a permanent memorial or any aspect of a memorial.

This pathway is also designed for artists, who may not have a team assembled to participate in the RFQ process, as a simple way to convey their qualifications and interest.

All submissions will be seen by the public (unless you opt-out) and provided to RFQ Finalists, who will be expected to incorporate Creative Expressions into the development of their proposals.
