Storefront for Community Design

There are presently no open calls for submissions.

The Storefront for Community Design and the mObstudiO at Virginia Commonwealth University School of the Arts invite teams of planners, landscape architects, architects, designers, artists or individuals to participate in a national design ideas competition to conceptually reimagine Monument Avenue in Richmond, Virginia.

Monument Avenue: General Demotion/General Devotion, asks participants to reconsider Monument Avenue: its role as an historic urban boulevard, its viability as a 5.4 mile interurban connector, its presence in Richmond given the city’s emergence as a diverse and progressive city, its significance in the history of the United States and in the current debate about Confederate statues in public spaces.

All contestants must register using the form below before entering the competition.
