| i am a photographer myself and was very much moved by both the photographs and artifacts. It captured the sincerity of the tragedy and brought to life that moment, that was both moving and timeless. From artistic point of view I found it to be like a master photographer, . Thank you for the opportunity to meet and talk to Gary.

| The Museum Workshop Tour was definitely one of the major highlights during our trip to NY. The Museum and tour are intimate, personalized, heroic, and heartwarming. The pictures do not dwell on the trajedies of September 11th, they display our heroes and how America and New York City has rebuilt and can still stand tall and proud. It was a delight getting the opportunity to meet Gary. |

| We were a group of 11 (ages 80 to 10). We were very impressed by our visit. I believe the adults got much more out of the presentation than the children; however, I am sure the children came away with much more of an understanding of this terrible event than they had going in.
It is such an emotional experience. Every picture has a story and they all tug at your heart. I found the story of the two fathers particularly touching. The museum brought tears to my eyes and a feeling of gratitude for firemen everywhere (and of course particularly in this incident) who gallantly go into terrible situations. I felt such pride in the courage and determination of the firefighters who determinedly went back day after day searching for remains. Our country needs to stand behind them now and take care of the health problems they are encountering due to their efforts. |

| This is a one-room museum packed with powerful, moving information about 9/11. We were lucky that Gary Marlon Suson happened to be there the day we reserved and he told the stories behind the photos that he took. A handful of people are allowed in at a time. There are couches and chairs to sit in to watch a video and then to browse at pictures on the walls as well as actual remnants. Celtic music is playing in the background. Tissues are available, and you will need them. You will learn some personal stories behind the tragedy. I have no personal connection with anyone involved in this tragedy, yet I feel extremely connected especially after seeing this museum. This tour is a must when visiting NYC; it was one of the highlights of our trip. |

| I wasn't sure what i expected from the tour but i know what i got out of it. It was the most moving experience and it really showed you to appreciate the workers of New York. Gary Marlon Suson has let the outside world in on what he captured in 9 months at ground zero. He honors the deceased and the living in a way that words can not explain. His pictures and items recovered from ground zero tell a story that is fascinating. I would HIGHLY recommend EVERYBODY to visit this museum. |

| This was a very touching experience. I would recommend to anyone - go to this museum. After the events on 9/11, this is a healing experience. To come face to face with the realities of what happened through Gary Suson's pictures is something I will never forget. "Never Forget 9/11" |

| I was so touched by Mr. Suson's photo's and other items in the exhibit. Being able to listen to Mr. Suson tell the story of each picture and object made the experience even more emotionally moving. Mr. Suson, I am so glad you have shared your work with those of us who can not even begin to imagine what it was like for everyone during the recovery effort. I believe you missions is a success!

| The room is small but brings the whole 9/11 recovery together. Most people will never see this but everyone should.
The day I went we were lucky to have Gary Suson there to talk and answer questions.
The pictures really capture the emotions and heartache of the people doing the work. Being able to hold the artifacts in my hands was humbling. |

| We were very fortunate that Gary Sosson was at the museum the day we visited. His photos are absolutely amazing . . . along with the self-guided audio tour and video presentation, they provide a moving and emotion-eliciting reminder to never forget. Do yourself a favor and see it. |

| This Museum Workshop captured the "real" moments of 9/11. The images displayed told a story. The artifacts also told a story which was very moving. I very much enjoyed every moment I was there. I think the audio devices are an excellent addition to the workshop. |
