| The advertisements read right when it says that this workshop is the "Biggest Little Museum" in New York City. I liked how it focused on the recovery efforts and it is hard to leave this place without being touched and having a mark left on your heart. The personal, intimate stories were very touching! My favorite part about the entire experience was that the museum was in a smaller, more intimate space. It had the atmosphere of a cozy living room, which made it feel more at home and comfortable. I also enjoyed being able to physically see some of the artifacts from the tragedy! |

| I loved the pictures and stories behind the photos and items here. I just wasn't a fan of the set up, it was like hearing someone give an opening statement in a trial having to listen to the 2 college students talk at the beginning of the tour. They moved around the room as they spoke about certain pictures, which was not very comfortable as you had to turn around in your seat (opposite of where the TV was) to see what they were pointing out. |

| I went with a girlfriend to the museum and was very impressed with the respect and care taken to display items and photographs. The audio descriptions were thorough and fascinating, and I was moved on more than one occasion with the description of certain items and the "behind the scenes" stories in relation to each photograph taken. This little one-room museum was very thought provoking, tastefully put together, and left me with a lasting memory that was heartbreaking, but not horrific. Very well done. |

| I found the museum very comforting, and the memorabilia and stories illuminating and inspiring. As more and more of the memorabilia is removed from Trinity Church and St. Pauls, this and the WTC Visitor's Centre are all that is left. I was glad I came. Thank you. |

| Although several friends from New York had never even heard of this museum (and cringed when I mentioned that I was going to a 9/11 museum)...they looked at the website (and feedback) and concurred that it was well worth a visit. The exhibit is tastefully done and I would encourage other NYC visitors to take advantage of this photographer's unique perspective. |

| The exhibit is a room filled with rememberance of the events of 9/11 with primary focus on the incredible 8-month ground zero recovery effort. It's repectful to the families of the victims and pays homage to the many diverse volunteers who worked round-the-clock during the recovery effort. It's an amazing testimony to the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity. There is an introduction video followed by a self-guided audio tour. Individual headsets are provided. Take the time to listen to the narration for each item on display. You will be moved in ways you didn't expect. |
