We remember 9/11.
25 years later we still remember.
We will always remember.

We remember the lives that were taken, the families who were changed forever, the heroes who ran toward danger, and the countless acts of courage, love, and kindness that emerged from unimaginable loss.

From our GiGi’s NYC family, we honor every life and every story touched by September 11th. May we continue to carry their memories in our hearts, hold one another a little closer, and never forget the strength and compassion that brought our city together.

Forever remembered. Forever loved. Forever in our hearts. 🇺🇸

What is Art ?
During our summer programs our participants visited The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), The Apollo Theater, and The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), where they experienced art in many different forms and reflected on the question: “What is art?” Through engaging conversations, creative exploration, and shared experiences, participants discovered that art can inspire, connect, and help us express who we are.
