| This excellent museum was a highlight of our visit to the city, tastefully and thoughtfully presented, and worthwhile to increase one's understanding of the incident aftermath. While many of us saw the tragedy happen in real time, the clean-up was only seen in bits and pieces due to the lengthy time involved. Gary helped bring closure to all that.
One bit of confusion... I could not figure out why you call it a "workshop." Please note that after a lifetime of developing, producing, and presenting workshops, the visit to your facility was just not a workshop. I almost skipped the visit due to the fact that I did not want to be in a traditional "workshop" setting.
Also note that my comment should not in any way be construed as a negative. This is a worthwhile stop for anyone.
Thanks. |

| This exhibit puts you right in the middle of the whole 911 event. You will have a hard time not shedding tears for the individuals of 911 with the exhibits and photographs of this exhibit. |

| We had a great emotional experience at the museum. We were able to meet the photographer and my wife was so impressed that she gave him a hug. It was a highlight of our trip to New York. |

| It's Not a Ground Zero Museum. It's a Gary Susan's photo Gallery. Not what I expect. |

| Finding all the material in one room initially made one feel that it was going to be a disappointing experience. How wrong could one be! The size of the room magnifies the intensity of the museum, and having a hands-on with material from Ground Zero actually brings you closer to victims, their families and the emergency services. The photographs all have a story to tell, and being narrated by the photographer only heightens one's feelings and reactions.
It truly is unmissable. |

| I did not know what to expect when I entered the museum. Listening to the beginning video and just glancing at the items on display while it was playing made me feel like I was part of the day of 911. I couldn't help but hear the sniffles in the room and I soon found myself looking for the tissue box. I didn't know anyone personally who was killed in the attacks but after the museum tour I felt like I knew everyone.
Thank you for keeping the museum going and for explaining in such detail the courage of the men and women that day. |

| Ground Zero Workshop was excellent. Images and narration by photographer create an emotional connection.
If there is another way to purchase tickets than Zerve, I would go that way. The ticket transaction was smooth but I called Zerve to see if they could accomodate rescheduling my appointment at an earlier time so that my family could enjoy some other things while in NYC and they told me that the appointment I wanted was booked.. I later confirmed that was not the case and I did not appreciate being lied to by Zerve. |

| My wife and I deeply enjoyed our tour of the 'Ground Zero Museum.' The staff were both very professional and thoughtful on how they presented the various images & artifacts that have been recovered from the recovery.

| The "museum" is more like a gallery, with the official photographer's best photos in the year after 9/11/01. There are only a few artifacts, and a few special ones. |

| There is no clear address stated to Ground Zero museum. The instructions say it is near to Subway station with vague directions. It is far in distance than described. It will be good if a small sketch of map is provided on ticket so that visitors can see the map and come instead of calling continuously the museum people. |
