Thursday, May 15

Join us for a live performance of "The Legacy of Welles Remy Crowther: The Man in the Red Bandana," a documentary play by Lisa Rafferty created verbatim from interviews with Welles' friends, family, and others impacted by his courage and compassion. For this special event, the play will be presented as a concert-reading performance, featuring a cast of 15, including Tony-nominated actor Tovah Feldshuh, firefighter-actors, and actors from Broadway and Boston College.
Stories of Service at Ground Zero
Wednesday, May 28
6-7 p.m. ET
By the morning of September 12, 2001, an estimated 5,000 people had arrived at Ground Zero to assist in the rescue and recovery efforts. Each brought specialized knowledge and a commitment to serve in the face of overwhelming obstacles. As the 9/11 Memorial & Museum commemorates the 23rd anniversary of the end of these efforts, retired carpenter Ramona Diaz-Allegrini, former Transport Workers Union Safety Inspector Dominick Spagnolo, and former lighting technician Charles Libin join 9/11 Memorial & Museum President & CEO Beth Hillman in conversation to highlight their work, and that of their unions, during that time.
23rd Anniversary Commemoration Ceremony
Friday, May 30
10:30 a.m. ET
Each year, on May 30, we mark the anniversary of the formal end of recovery operations at Ground Zero. In a ceremony on the Memorial plaza, we will honor the courage and sacrifice of 9/11 rescue, recovery, and relief workers, remember those who have died due to 9/11-related illness and injury, and recognize the spirit of survivors and members of the downtown community.
9/11 community members are also invited to visit the Museum prior to the ceremony. Tickets for this group can be reserved here.
Battery Dance: The Frozen Zone Performance
Wednesday, June 4
6-7 p.m. ET
Battery Dance, a lower Manhattan–based dance company, held a public dance festival at the World Trade Center Plaza every year between 1982 and 2001. Just two weeks after the 9/11 attacks, the company presented a spontaneous performance entitled Pavilion at the Franklin Street subway station on the cusp of the “frozen zone." In conversation with Museum Director Clifford Chanin, Founder and Artistic Director of Battery Dance Jonathan Hollander, Dancer Tadej Brdnik, Composer and Tabla Player Samir Chatterjee, and Composer and World Percussionist Yousif Sheronick, reflect on the importance of the performance and what it means almost 25 years later. The discussion will be followed by a re-staged performance of Pavilion by Kar'mel Small.
The 9/11 Memorial & Museum’s programs are made possible, in part, by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
