Faith & Grief Memorial Arch
Faith & Grief announces the 10th anniversary of the Memorial Arch, a community ritual of remembrance and comfort in Dallas’ Klyde Warren Park. Open from November 22 – December 14, 2025, the Memorial Arch invites the community to honor loved ones by writing their names on ribbons and tying them to the Arch as a visible symbol of love remembered.
Since its beginning, the Memorial Arch has become a place of reflection and hope during the holiday season. Born out of tragedy in 2016, when five first responders were killed in Dallas, the Arch has welcomed thousands each year. To date, more than 40,000 ribbons have been placed in remembrance.
Each year, the Arch highlights a community of grievers whose pain often goes unrecognized. In 2025, the Arch will bring awareness to the grief experienced by veterans and their families, honoring their sacrifices and acknowledging their ongoing journey through loss.
After the close of each season, ribbons from the Arch are preserved through the River of Time art installation, ensuring these sacred expressions of grief and love are remembered for years to come.
Faith & Grief invites all to participate in this decade milestone of comfort, remembrance, and hope.
