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.
Our 25 Years Later Series
To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the attacks, the 9/11 Memorial & Museum will present a year-long series of public programs that invites audiences to examine the lasting impact of 9/11 through moderated conversations, panels, and performances. The series will bring together historians, policymakers, veterans, clinicians, journalists, artists, and members of the 9/11 community to explore both the immediate aftermath of the attacks and their long-term consequences.
