As
a prelude, New Yorkled would like to suggest something for those
out there who might not want to attend a memorial, or church service
or concert or anything of the sort. If you're seeking a more solemn
way to spend your September 11th then how about paying
the NYC Fire Museum a visit.
They've got a permanent 911 memorial
and welcomes one and all.
To learn more visit the official
site or visit the New Yorkled
Pages dedicated to this wonderful downtown museum.
| The
Annual September Concert, September 11th
The September Concert was born on the first anniversary of
9/11 as an attempt to fill the skies with music that day.
With what's happening around the world right now, we are reminded
more than ever that we have the power to bring joy to this
troubled world through music. The September Concert is committed
to bringing people together, reaffirming our desire for peace,
celebrating life and our universal humanity every year on
September 11th.
Exact times of concerts vary. Please check their website
www.SeptemberConcert.org for updated Concert Listings. You can also click on "VIDEO"
to see one of their previous events.

It's a symbolic representation of respect for those who perished in the World Trade Center attacks. Beginning at 6:00 pm and on to 9:00 pm, participants may write loved ones' names or messages for peace on the lanterns. Music follows. At 7:45 pm, as dusk approaches, the lighted lanterns are released on the waters of the Hudson River just north of Ground Zero. FREE
