Harvey Milk is a civil rights icon who stood up for inclusiveness and access for all. Now, a design competition seeks to preserve his legacy so that all may be inspired by his example. This program is a partnership of the Friends of Harvey Milk Plaza, the American Institute of Architects San Francisco Chapter (AIASF), the Center for Architecture + Design, San Francisco Department of Public Works, San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency and the San Francisco Art Commission.

The Harvey Milk Plaza Competition is open for submissions through May 31, 2017. Visit friendsofharveymilkplaza.org for more information, or to download the design brief. Image © Bettman, via Getty Images
