We were moved by the very personal images, the recovered artifacts, and the personal stories of sacrifice, heroism, and patriotism. Everyone should see this display, so that we will never forget!

Much has been written about September 11th. We've all read the accounts of what occured that day and we've seen pictures that have shocked us. That being said, there are stories (and images) within the story of September 11th, things that were not reported/seen in any media formats. Why? Because the media was not allowed on-site access to the World Trade Center site. However, that changed in November 2001 when Gary Marlon Suson, a New York photographer, was gained unlimited access to the site. He soon gained the trust of the police and firefighters who were involved in the cleanup/recovery. Suson's museum includes many artifacts that he was allowed to remove from the actual site. You can even hold an actual piece of World Trade Center steel, which has been shaped into a cross. The images really convey a powerful message. They show frustration, exaustion, and sadness. Every artifact and image is presented with the utmost respect and dignity. These are the accounts of a man who was there, day in and day out, right alongside the firefighters as they searched for their fallen brothers. A visit to the Ground Zero Museum Workshop will allow you to become more informed about September 11th and it's aftermath. Even more importantly, the images will provide a window to the soul of many recovery workers who gave all they had for nine months, helping to heal a strong yet bruised nation.
An emotional experience Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

An absolute must (better to go before visiting Ground Zero!). The room is small but strangely comforting. I should point out that the taxi driver who took us was in doubt that we were in the right place and was actually reticent about dropping us off as the street was somewhat deserted and had a derelict look about it. There was an uncomfortable air about the location. It did cross my mind how many people had a similar experience and decided not to stay! However, we soon discovered that this is one of the safest districts in town and when you get there you will see opposite, a (the?) Stella McCartney shop. When we left via the other end of the street in which we arrived we saw some very up market shops, houses and restaurants in the immediate vicinity. Gary Suson is a quite remarkable individual. The event commences with an introduction to explain what the workshop is about, how it came about and some histrionics of Gary's experiences at Ground Zero. This is followed by a short video and a re-run of an interview that Gary gave to one of the main stream US news channel (CNN?). The videos are highly emotionally charged and reduced my daughter (aged 21) to tears. I certainly had a lump in my throat. After the video, each of us received a portable electronic ‘story teller’ where one can select a number that corresponds with the numbered photos and artifacts that are displayed around the room. The photos are extraordinary and the artifacts will move you. I have no wish to spoil the experience of anyone wishing to visit by going into detail. The only thing I need to say is please go – it’s an emotional, eye opening and mind provoking experience that will live with you forever. Thanks Gary – we will never forget!
Reverently beautiful Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Gary Suson has captured the emotion of the Ground Zero recovery efforts in this museum. From the time I entered the door, I felt the reverence and emotion he put into both his photographs and his museum. All of the artifacts and photos truly reach out and allow the person to feel the emotion of the "brotherhood". The museum tour was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. Thank you Gary Suson for being devoted to this cause.
Extremely Moving Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Mother's Day Weekend - Mother & daughter from Vermont Our trip to the 9/11 museum was just outstanding. We've both experienced several museums in NYC, but have never been moved quite like our visit to the 9/11 museum. Both my mother and I enjoy learning about history but more importantly, learning about the symbolism of history and that is what this museum was all about for us. The 9/11 museum might be small in space, but not with information. We learned so much more about that day and the many days that followed the 9/11 attacks. Gary Suson's ability to capture history, the event, and symbolism of that day and after is just amazing. The old saying of "You get out of it what you put into it" is how I can best describe this museum. If you want to learn more about that day and the impact of that day on the many people involved, go to this museum. You just won't believe some of the things you hear and learn - just amazing! Worth every penny. Thanks so much! 802 :-)
Beautifully displayed portrail of events, must see Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

I would like to thank Gary for this beautiful portrail of these horrific events. The emotion that is shown in his photographs along with the story being told in his voice is undescribable. The intimate setting is very comfortable and allows you to feel at home. My husband and I stayed for about 1 1/2 hours and could have stayed longer. We were not rushed and were able to move around the gallery at our leisure. Gary thank you again for doing all that you have done and are still doing for our Firefighters. My God be with you and comfort you for all you have seen and done. My husband and I expected you to be much older than you are to take this orginally on yourself than accepting the appointment, we assumed that you had seen war or have been a firefighter/EMT in the past to be able to tolerate the horrible things you have seen. You are a fine young man telling a beautiful story about a horrific event in our nations history. Kudos to you!
A must do in NYC! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Having been to To NYC in past, and coming back post 9-11, this museum is essential for putting a lot of what happenened since that date, into perspective. The photos and artifacts, coupled with the commentaries are gripping. The hands -on element is particularly emotive. Highly recommended.
Very insightful Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

I believe this museum was a labor of love for all those who died Sept. 11th. The museum reflects an attitude of respect, reverence, and an insight into that terrible day and a tribute so we will not forget!
Very Moving Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

We came up for the weekend from Florida, and I never expected to get as much out of this exhibit as I did. Magnificent photography with wonderful, touching stories. I was very moved. This meant more to me than actually going to the site of ground zero. I would highly recommend this everyone.
A "Must See" Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Fri, Apr 27, 07 11:30 AM	rconde	Female	50-59	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family Without Children
This is an exhibit that transports you to ground zero from the moment that you walk in. Gary Suson has organized the workshop in an effective way starting from the first day through the last day of recovery. He gave a presentation explaining how he became the only photographer allowed in ground zero to document the efforts through pictures and he also shared his experience as he was taking some of the photos on display. After the presentation you are free to walk around. The photos are displayed in different ways - some are three dimensional, others have actual WTC rocks, dust, debris strewn about them. Also on display are some of the items used in the recovery and items found. As you view them you have the use of a hand held audio device. Each picture/item has an identifying number, when you enter the number you hear an explanation when, where, and what was happening. This is an excellent method to use in this type of display - it allows you all the time to take it in. He has sofas and stools around where you can sit in "awe" before moving on. Do not let the size of this gallary fool you, soon you will discover that this small intimate gallary is one of the largest displays you have seen, heard and felt. We highly recommend it!

Moving & Memorable Visit to the Ground Zero Museum Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Fri, Apr 20, 07 11:30 AM	Pinklady1967	Female	40-49	Domestic Tourist(s)	Couple on a Date
Greg and I visited the Ground Zero Museum on Friday 20th April 2007 whilst on Holiday in New York. We both found the Museum informative and interesting and felt very moved and emotional after our visit. The photographs that were on display highlighted some of the terrible sights and conditions that the rescue workers were faced with. It is hard to imagine what everybody on site, not to mention the families and friends of the people who were killed, went through. Thank you for allowing us to visit the Museum.

This workshop contains unique and original facts and artifacts of 9/11 events and the following days. Everything is presented in detail and with much respect and honor for all involved. The excellent presentation of the material helps you understand the feelings experienced during that time. This workshop should be available nation wide in order that no one should forget 9/11.

I would just like to say a big thank you to you from us all, for your truly amazing insight into what it was like at Ground Zero for the firefighters of NYC. The girls and I all came away with a feeling we couldn't describe, and through your work we can now understand how much life changed that day, and how we shall never forget. Vicky, Charlotte, Ally and Kelly
