The John Fitzgerald Kennedy Memorial, also known as The Grotto: John Fitzgerald Kennedy Memorial,[1] is an outdoor 1965 large bas-relief sculpture and memorial to John F. Kennedy by an unknown artist, installed outside The Grotto in Portland, Oregon, United States.

Description and reception

The large bas-relief sculpture and memorial to John F. Kennedy is installed in the parking lot of The Grotto, a Catholic shrine and sanctuary formally known as the National Sanctuary of Our Sorrowful Mother, located at Northeast Sandy Boulevard and 85th Avenue in Portland's Madison South neighborhood.[2] It was created in 1965 by an unknown artist. The plaque displays Kennedy's profile, the same seen on the Kennedy half dollar.[1]

The memorial was gifted by multiple Catholic organizations.[2] Its condition was deemed "well maintained" by the Smithsonian Institution's "Save Outdoor Sculpture!" program in July 1993.[1] The memorial is administered by the National Sanctuary of Our Sorrowful Mother and has been included in published walking tours of Portland.[1][2][3]
