New York Remembers September 11
The exhibit currently open to the public, is one of 30
exhibits that Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, the New York State Museum
and the National September 11 Memorial & Museum announced the
locations for "New York Remembers" as part of a statewide recognition
of the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The exhibits
are a place for visitors to remember the victims of the attacks,
pay homage to those who participated in the recovery and cleanup
and view never-before-seen artifacts from the WTC site. "Every
community across New York felt the impact of the senseless acts
of terrorism that claimed thousands of lives just one decade ago,"
Cuomo said. "These exhibitions will give New Yorkers in towns,
villages, and cities all across the state a gathering place to
once again stand as one community to make sure we never forget
those who lost their lives on September 11th and to embrace the
spirit of unity that brought us together on that day of devastating
tragedy."
Relay for Life
