Balancing Memory and History: Inside the 9/11 Memorial & Museum (VIRTUAL)

Free virtual presentation This year marks the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks. At the 9/11 Memorial & Museum in New York City, memorializing and educating about that day and its aftermath remains as resonant as ever. The institution draws millions of visitors each year – from individuals directly impacted by 9/11 to an entire generation with no lived memory of the attacks. Connecting with such diverse audiences requires constant thought about how history is conveyed, memory is maintained, and stories are shared. Join us virtually as Noah Rauch, Senior Vice President, Education & Public Programs, provides a behind-the-scenes look at the institution’s development and design, the inherent complexity of conveying such a challenging history, and how the stories, themes, and legacy of the attacks continue to be shared in this milestone year with audiences from around the world.
