Alexandria Police Memorial
deadline: Friday, October 30, 4pm
The City of Alexandria, Virginia seeks to commission public art for the Alexandria Police headquarters, currently under construction. The purpose of the project is to recognize the service of Alexandria Police Officers to their community. The artwork will focus on the honor, integrity and sacrifice of Alexandria’s fallen officers, past and future and will convey a message of honor, appreciation and remembrance rather than one of loss and sorrow. The Memorial will also provide an appropriate site for ceremonial activities of the Alexandria Police Department and the City. The Alexandria Police Department has lost seventeen law enforcement officers in the line of duty, the first in 1823 and the most recent in 1993.
Deadline for Submission: October 30, 2009, 4 pm
Budget: $300,000
Eligibility: Open to all artists. No geographic requirements.
Anticipated Award Date: May 2010
