Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

We were fortunate to have Gary as our 'guide'. He has given to the world the priceless gift of his time, talent and enormous sensitivity and caring for such a traumatic event in the history of the United States and the World that is still hard to get one's mind around. Our hearts cannot even imagine the true love, compassion and self-sacrifice that he and those working at Ground Zero gave for our fellow humans lost in this horrible tragedy. Each exemplifies the grace and goodness that we each would hope to find in ourselves if called upon in any needful situation. This exhibit should never be dismantled. Attendance should be mandatory so the World never forgets the tragedy, but also, gains an understanding of the resilience and generousity of the human, and very American, spirit.

It is on top of my list for one of the most memorable experiences in New York. The museum is small, but the emotional impact is huge. The photography displayed is so tastelfully done, and most definitely a priceless collection. I purchased the book so that I will be able to share this piece of history with my grandchildren, and show them how honored we all are to be Americans.

Powerful and moving images and stories.

An intimate and moving tribute to the fallen victims of 9-11. Our tour was led by the photographer himself, Gary Suson. He provided a very touching first hand commentary of someone who was there for the recovery process. I highly recommend this museum as part of the Ground Zero experience.

I enjoyed the tour very much. It was interactive and informative. It had a much greater impact on me than just visiting Ground Zero itself. This tour brought 9-11 to life.

For a Canadian couple who only saw what happened during 9-11 through media reports, this was an excellent way to better understand the heroism that took place following the tragedy. You hear directly from the photographer what he saw and experienced while police and firefighters spent months searching through the rubble. It's not just about seeing the photographs and artifacts, but about hearing the stories of those that dedicated their lives to making the clean-up meaningful to those who survived and families grieving those who did not. A moving, powerful exhibit for anyone comfortable feeling emotional and wanting to remember the devestation. I would not recommend this exhibit for small children.

this is a vivid and sensitive reminder of this infamous day. not to be classified as an enjoyable experience, but rather an unforgettable one that helps us understand the sufferings of the thousands of people and families that were affected......... we shall never forget!

i would rather reccomend to visit that small museum than to go to Grand Zero

My wife and I were overwhelmed by what we saw in the museum. It is a must for every American, and by that I mean those that love the USA. Many of the photos brought tears to our eyes. The devastation and the useless loss of lives, what a waste. Those that committed this heinous crime against humanity should burn in Hell.

I enjoyed being able to move through the museum at my own pace. A very touching & informative collection of pictures & related materials from that horrible day. Thank you Gary Marland Suson for sharing.
