America Remembers Fund
In America: Remember was a public art exhibition conceived and installed by artist Suzanne Brennan Firstenberg on nearly 20 acres of the National Mall in Washington, D.C. At its closing on October 3, 2021, over 700,000 white flags were waving at the base of the Washington Monument, with each flag honoring the life lost in America because of COVID-19. Given its scale, the project was the largest public participatory art installation on the Mall since the AIDS quilt. The visual moment allowed people to reflect on the tragedy suffered by our nation. It provided the community with the opportunity to honor individual lives shortened by COVID-19.
