The Africatown International Design Idea Competition is accepting architectural concepts for a new cultural heritage destination called The Africatown Cultural Mile.
"Africatown shot to the forefront of the world’s consciousness with the sensational May 2019 discovery of the sunken slave ship Clotilda in the Mobile River Delta," notes the Africatown International Design Idea Competition website. "The Africatown International Design Idea Competition leverages the spectacular Clotilda find to give multi-disciplinary design teams a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to imagine a revived Africatown, with 16 land and water-edged venues on 4 sites across 3 cities that interpret and honor its history."
The application deadline is September 19, 2022. Learn more on the Africatown International Design Idea Competition website.
