Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

This was our first time in New York and when I found the site online it sounded interesting and was something we definately wanted our kids to see. It was a great intimate setting, the photos and listening to the accounts that coincide with those photos were just incredible, it really brings you back to that day and where you were and what you were doing. I would recommend this to others who feel the loss that so many people did from that day so many years ago.....even though i did not personally know anyone that perished that day i feel a sense of loss for what happened to our country. it was a very touching display and hit home.....it was great to meet Gary Susson and hear from him what he went thru, it was a day I will never forget.

I really enjoyed everything about the experience. Just a few items: 1 - The video played on the large screen is not formatted to fit the screen. So, what you end up with is poor image quality. Perhaps you could right-size the video or screen. A small screen should not be bad considering the intimate setting. 2 - There needs to be a larger sign/banner outside the front door. 3 - The soft spoken young man assisiting the group with the tour needs to speak up. When requested to speak up he appears shy and then resumes speaking softly. Thank you for asking for my feedback.

This was the most humbling experience imaginable. I think this workshop is a must when you visit NYC. I have never ever felt like I felt when I was there. I was with my 12 year old Son and he cried when he was there. I recommend this to anyone of any age.

The Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour is like no other Mueseum that I've ever been to. Its intimate atmosphere allows you to get up close and personalize what happened on that September morning in 2001. The photos are unbelievable and each has its own story to tell which is told to you by the photogropher himself Gary Marlon Suson through a audio-headset. There are many artifacts to look at as well. The tour starts with a video and then is self guided. If you are interested in learning about the rescue efforts and the personal stories of 9/11 then the Ground Zero Museum Workshop is essential. We were fortunate in that on the day we went to the museum, Gary himself was there and gave us the tour. Not only is he a talented individual but he has a great heart and he shared with us so many of his personal stories as the official photographer of Ground Zero.

I would recommend this museum to everyone. It really gives you an idea of the the recovery process was like. How hard they worked and the grief that these people suffered. If you do not understand how bad terrisom can be visit this workshop.

Our tour guide was Shaun who looked after everyone very well and helped make the visit to the museum a memorable experience, sharing stories that I will also never forget. The museum gives you an insight into this tragedy which leaves you with so many thoughts and emotions felt, even if you did not any connection to the event. Filled with photographs and items, taken and found during the recovery process, the museum is definitely worth a visit.

Excellent, a must see for New York, New York

I can't recommend this museum enough. As a visitor from England I didn't know what to expect, but I can highly recommend it for people of all ages. The sensitive pictures capture the mood of the dreadful events of 9/11. If you are travelling to Ground Zero, take time out to visit this exhibition. It may be off the beaten track slightly, but we worth finding. Lynda, England

An experience that you will not get anywhere else. The Ground Zero Museum Workshop is a moving experience that my sister and I will never forget. Definitely a most stop if you are in New York City. We liked the hands on experience.

Well worth your time and very interesting- learned things that you couldn't have learned about the recovery process in any other way
