Construction of the Curtain of Courage Memorial is Underway

By County of San Bernardino

10/28/2021 at 04:51 PM

The Curtain of Courage Memorial is now under construction on the east side of the County Government Center at 385 North Arrowhead Avenue in downtown San Bernardino.

The Memorial is a tribute to the 14 people taken from us on December 2, 2015, in the terrorist attack at the Inland Regional Center on Waterman Avenue, the survivors, and first responders who protected our community on that day.

The project was designed by landscape architect and artist Walter Hood, with input from the December 2 Memorial Committee, and the families of Robert Adams, Isaac Gebreslassie Amanios, Bennetta Betbadal, Harry “Hal” Bowman, Sierra Clayborn, Juan Espinoza, Aurora Godoy, Shannon Johnson, Daniel Kaufman, Damian Meins, Tin Nguyen, Nicholas Thalasinos, Yvette Velasco and Mike Wetzel.  

The Curtain of Courage is expected to be completed in the spring of 2022. A private ceremony for the families and survivors will be held when the Memorial is completed followed by a public unveiling.
