Memorial: Love, Loss, and the Art of Remembrance

Memorial: Love, Loss, and the Art of Remembrance is a lyrical and visually powerful exploration of how one community transformed anguish into action. Born from the temporary Highland Park Arts Memorial - sparked by artist/activist Jacqueline von Edelberg in response to the July 4th mass shooting - and evolved in Nashville after the Covenant School tragedy, this book weaves poetry, photography, and personal reflection into a deeply moving journey through grief, healing, and hope. It captures how a public space became sacred ground, how art gave form to sorrow, and how the human need for connection turned mourning into movement. More than a tribute, Memorial is a call to resist paralysis, to create beauty in the face of darkness, and to remember that healing begins when we come together.
