The Davis Cemeterey District has opened a call for artists for their COVID-19 memorial.
Deadline for submissions is March 15, 2024.
BACKGROUND AND OPPORTUNITY
The Davis Cemetery District is installing a permanent COVID-19 memorial at the Davis Cemetery at 820 Pole Line Road.
This memorial will feature a walking path, seating/reflection space, informational signage, and privacy landscaping.
Visitors will walk along a path where they will walk through four to five archways, each designed to represent stages of the pandemic.
The path will end at a reflection wall where visitors can reflect on the meaning of the memorial.
As visitors leave the memorial, signage will be placed along the path describing the strength and resiliency our community has gained through the pandemic and will focus on looking forward, while remembering the past.
