Atlanta Public Museum
Memorial Project
Honoring our Alumni, Veterans, Citizens and Businesses ~ One Brick at a Time
What started out as the 2025-2026 Memorial Project has turned into a multi-phase, multi-year project that continues to grow. Currently, Phase 1 is underway, with the first set of Alumni Bricks to be installed prior to Memorial Day, with a dedication taking place on Monday, May 25, 2026. In July 2026, we will order the second group of bricks with an estimated brick installation August-September 2026.
If you would like to purchase a brick, please print off the Order Form below and submit it with your fee. If you have questions, contact the Atlanta Public Museum @ 217-871-5257 or you may email us at atlantamuseum@yahoo.com. This project will be ongoing until all represented groups is complete.
We are currently taking orders for:
* Atlanta Alumni
* Atlanta Olympia Alumni
* Millitary
* Masonic Members
* Businesses, former and current
* Family Memorials
* Social Groups (ex. Women's Club, Lion's Club, Rotary, etc)
* Ministers
* Auxiliary & Legion
* Mayors
* and any other classifications that we've missed
​
Please Note ~ ​We are not looking to 'raise money'; the additional funds from the brick purchase price is used for the installation of the bricks; but it is our hope to sell enough bricks to be able line the oval walk leading to the Library, the area around the Clock Tower, an additional walk area by the Veterans Memorial, and the front of the actual Museum.
​
You can help make this happen and help us reach our goal by purchasing a Memorial Brick with your category's custom personalization.
