Oklahoma City National Memorial

This area provides letter shaped chalkboards to allow the continued emotional expressions from those young and old. A surrounding wall displays a collection of painted tiles sent by schools, showing their compassion for the bombing-affected community
The outdoor symbolic memorial is a place of quiet reflection, honoring victims, survivors, rescuers, and all who were changed forever on April 19, 1995. It encompasses the now sacred soil where the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building once stood, capturing and preserving forever the place and events that changed the world.
