    Five Museum visitors stand with their backs to the camera in Memorial Hall, observing two site-specific artworks. A quotation forged from recovered World Trade Center —“No day shall erase you from the memory of time”—speaks to the Museum’s promise to remember the 2,983 lives lost on 9/11 and in the 1993 bombing. Surrounding the letters of the Virgil quote is a work by artist Spencer Finch titled Trying to Remember the Color of the Sky on That September Morning.

    For Member, Member Plus, and Member Premium: Guests must be accompanied by a current Museum member. Please allow 14 business days for processing and delivery of guest passes. These are included in the member package along with the permanent membership card.

    All guided tours require advance registration subject to availability and are redeemable one time within a year of membership.
