9/11 Exhibit


Next Thursday, the 8th of September from 6pm-9pm, a new exhibit about the maritime role in the 9/11 response will be opening. The exhibit takes place on the historic ship LILAC at Hudson River Park's Pier 25 (North Moore Street in Tribeca). Hours after the 8th for the month of September will be Thursdays from 12:00pm- 6:00pm and Saturdays from 1:00pm-6:00pm. This was included in the exhibit info that we received. "PortSide NewYork is mounting a multimedia exhibit (photography, videos and oral history) and a related talk about the extraordinarily successful and little-known maritime role in responding to 9/11, from evacuation to rubble removal. The exhibit is created in partnership with the Lilac Preservation Project." Also ways of supporting this exhibit are listed below.

Sponsors are still being sought. Email us here or call 917-414-0565.

Volunteer at the exhibit: Help increase the hours that the ship LILAC can be open to the public.

Provide content: if you were evacuated by water, worked on a response boat on 9/11, or photographed the activities on the water, we may be able to use your images.
