Adam Turck Memorial Project
A place for us to remember and honor the legacy of Adam Turck
As August 2nd approaches, we know the anniversary is weighing heavily on many folks' hearts and minds. There's no right way to mark a day like this. Grief is strange, and everyone navigates it differently. Whatever you need this week, We hope you give yourself permission to feel it. If there's one thing Adam would want, it's for everyone to be kind to his friends (which includes all of you being kind to yourselves).
For those of you looking for an active way to remember Adam, we wanted to share a few ways to get involved:
-
Memorial Site Gathering: On August 2nd, a group of us will be assembling at 9:30 AM at Adam's memorial space, on East Grace Street between N 20th St. and N 21st St. in Richmond, Virginia. If you'd like to help decorate the space, feel free to bring flowers, drawings, chalk, or anything else that feels like Adam.

Adam Paul Turck
Adam was a deeply passionate person. He was devoted to the Richmond arts community. He would cheerfully talk for as long as you’d let him about holistic health, fitness, and athleticism. He was the nexus of many communities, and continually engaged with the ways in which he and his people could aid those communities.
Although Adam is no longer with us, his legacy continues to ripple outwards. Our intent is to ensure that we are deliberate and responsible stewards of that legacy, and to aid the communities and causes that Adam would have chosen to aid if he were still alive. To that end we are establishing the Adam Turck Memorial Project. It will workto strengthen communities in and around Richmond, with a focus on Activism, Athleticism, and the Arts.
This work cannot be done alone. Meaningful change requires the strength of a united community. If you would like to get involved, please sign up for our mailing list below. Your continued attention now will guarantee his memory and impact continue far past what even Adam would have thought possible.
