History of the Mumford Awards In 1992, ADPSR instituted an annual Lewis Mumford awards program to honor people and organizations that exemplify ADPSR’s goals of peace, preservation of the natural and built environment, and socially responsible development. Lewis Mumford’s writings continue to inspire and remind us that architecture, design, and planning, must respond to human needs, harmonize with its surroundings, and reflect the aspirations and social context of our civilization. We are proud to
honor the winners of the 2008 Mumford Awards:
The League of Young Voters is named for outstanding efforts in world peace. The award for environmental preservation goes to Nuestras Raìces (Our Roots). Mel King is recognized for outstanding work in the area of community development. The award sculptures are works of art by Jamie E. Hatch. You can view more of her work at the Fire Sign Fabrications website: www.firesignfabrications.com/ Click here to see the news release about the 2008 honorees.
