UNM Alumni Relations office proposed the idea of a
memorial chapel in 1944 and raised funds through 1959.
Architect John Gaw Meem drew the original plans.
The Chapel opened in 1962 as a memorial to alumni who
gave their lives in our nation’s wars. The Chapel’s simple
elegance complements any occasion, public or personal.
In keeping with the Chapel’s Franciscan Mission
architecture, the design for the Chapel Garden extends
the spiritual space within the Chapel to the surrounding
outside area. The Garden’s comprehensive design plan
includes provisions for a rose garden, gathering space,
seating, shade, a fountain and lighting.
The centerpiece of the Garden will be the
Celebration Wall, adorned with tiles of photographs of
alumni, students, faculty, staff, and friends. The Celebration
Wall will serve the university community’s spirit and
provide a historic record of the many celebrations,
memorials, and important events held at the Chapel.
