Introduction
The Ground Zero Museum Workshop was founded by photographer Joe McNally and is an intimate image museum focused on the cleanup and rebuilding of Ground Zero after 9/11, distinct from the official 9/11 Memorial Museum downtown and offering an artist perspective on humanity and resilience after the disaster. McNally was granted special access to the restricted Ground Zero site as a Life magazine photographer, producing hundreds of portraits of firefighters, ironworkers, and rescue dogs, including the iconic Ground Zero Spirit image of firefighter Tommy Feehan against an American flag. The workshop exhibition features large-format photographs, video interviews with rescue workers, fragments of World Trade Center steel, and images of the Last Column, the final steel beam removed from the site. Tours are led by docents who personally experienced 9/11, in a solemn and respectful atmosphere, offering a fine-grained human complement to the grand narrative of the official memorial.
