The AIDS Monument

West Hollywood Park, permanent

With World AIDS Day on 1 December, the City of West Hollywood and the Foundation for the AIDS Monument (FAM) unveiled The AIDS Monument in West Hollywood Park to memorialize those impacted by HIV/AIDS, and honors the community’s activism and the personal stories.

Designed by artist Daniel Tobin, the monument features a plaza, a donor wall, vertical bronze ‘traces’ with narrative text, integrated lighting reminiscent of a candlelight vigil, and a podium facing N. San Vicente Boulevard, that functions as a public art experience and memorial site.
