In accordance with this year’s theme: It’s About US, the MA charette partnered the very best talent that Indianapolis has to offer in design, development, construction, engineering, and public art. The resulting ideas were presented as part of the program at this year’s A Monumental Affair awards ceremony on November 11, at the Indiana Roof Ballroom.
