National September 11 Memorial and Museum

The National September 11 Memorial & Museum will create an exhibition of children’s artwork of 9/11, which will highlight the experience of children as witnesses to the events of 9/11 through the art they created in the year following. Museum staff will select works from the museum’s permanent collection of more than 800 works of children’s art. For the project, staff will develop an audio tour and online educational resources. To accompany the exhibition, staff will conduct educational public programming. Beneficiaries of the project will include multigenerational audiences, educators, adult visitors who were children on 9/11, and youth visitors.
