Yarışmalar-Competitions

Type: Open, two-stage
Registration Deadline: December 27, 2004
Submission Deadline: January 11, 2005
Open to: All
Entry Fee: US$25
Awards: Design Commission
Jury: To be announced

You are invited to:
- Honor the heroes of Flight 93—the 40 passengers and crew who on one
September morning changed the course of history...
- Contribute to the dialogue of what a national memorial should be…
- Conceive a message that will reflect on the event that occurred on
September 11, 2001 and be timeless in its power and conviction…

It is hoped that through this competition process, a design will be
discovered that embodies the spirit of the Flight 93 Mission Statement and
is a fitting memorial to those 40 individuals who chose to make a
difference…

The Partners of the Flight 93 Memorial Project collectively are sponsoring
this Design Competition: the Families of Flight 93, the Flight 93 Advisory
Commission, the Flight 93 Memorial Task Force and the National Park Service
are collaborating to extend this invitation to you.

The competition will be carried out in two stages and is open to
professionals in the design and art disciplines as well as the public.
Individuals or teams may register for a nonrefundable fee of $25. All Stage
I submittals will be presented as a concept on a single board and will be
judged anonymously (without the jury knowing the name of the entrant).

The Stage I Jury will select three to five finalists who will advance to
Stage II and participate in a Site Master Plan Workshop. The finalists will
receive a $25,000 honorarium each to further develop their concept and
present it with additional drawings and a three-dimensional model. The Stage
II Jury will recommend a winning concept to the Flight 93 Advisory
Commission, which then presents the recommendation to the Secretary of the
Interior and to Congress.

The author of the winning submittal will be invited to negotiate a contract
with the National Pak Service for final design of the winning concept.

Both juries will be composed of distinguished professionals, family members,
and the public from local and international communities.
