Upcoming Public Programs

The 9/11 Memorial & Museum’s public programs explore a range of topics reflecting on the ongoing impacts and continued resonance of the attacks, their historical context, and their aftermath. 

Behind the Lines: A 9/11 Story
Wednesday, June 10 at 6 p.m.

Join us for a live performance of Behind the Lines: A 9/11 Story, led by internationally acclaimed trumpeter Dominick Farinacci, featuring retired FDNY firefighter Bill Spade and U.S. military veteran Jaymes Poling. Set against the tragedy of the 9/11 attacks and the subsequent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Spade and Poling relive their experiences, revealing a powerful, shared bond of strength, meaning, and the human capacity to endure. Their stories, woven together with a deeply moving musical performance by Farinacci and a cast of renowned musicians, unite audiences in remembrance and reflection. This production is directed by Emmett Murphy.

Through support of The Never Forget Fund, public programs are made possible by Delta Air Lines and Fiserv.
