This project is the only collaborative, multi-city effort in the country honoring King.</p> <p> The landscape design firm Rootbound, which is owned by Andrews University faculty and alumni (Garth and Helani Woodruff), was commissioned to design the two monuments.</p> <p> This event is free and open to the public.
