Debbie Allen Monument

Debbie Allen has a couple of monuments, which is her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Debbie Allen Dance Academy. The monument I have created for Debbie Allen is a statue of Allen holding up two of her ballet students in a ballet position. It will display who Debbie Allen was to not only her student but to those who know her as well. People do not just see Debbie Allen as a woman who has all these trophies and awards they know as an instructor, a mother figure, someone who has helped them through their troubles, someone who has made their dreams come true. This monument will be placed in front of the Houston Ballet School. This location is perfect as it will show that even though she was rejected at first because of certain obstacles, she still made it big and aspired for her dreams to come true.

Debbie Allen Monument at George Mason University

George Mason University has a dance program on campus. There is a building dedicated to the fine arts program called the Center of the Arts and the DeLaski Performing Arts Building. Debbie Allen’s monument would be placed somewhere inside the building near the dance department. Even though Debbie Allen did many other projects than just dance, the monument at first glance displays dance, so it only makes sense.
