Tribute in Light will once again light the New York City skyline, unifying the city in a beloved annual tradition. In addition to the Tribute in Light, Tribute in Lights, a citywide initiative in partnership with NYC & Company, will bring together cultural institutions, corporate buildings, and various landmarks across New York City who will participate by lighting up their facades and spires in Memorial blue.
And once again, the Anniversary in the Schools webinar will use first-hand storytelling from 9/11 family members, survivors, and rescue and recovery workers to bring the story of 9/11 to the classroom, ensuring that future generations will never forget. Since 2016, the Anniversary in the Schools pre-recorded webinar has reached more than a million participants in all 50 states and in 40 countries.
“Each anniversary of September 11 brings a new chance to reflect, mourn, and reconnect with the lessons we learned when our city was at its lowest,” said New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio. “The 9/11 Memorial & Museum tells a powerful story of resilience, recovery, and rebirth. I look forward to joining New Yorkers in upholding our promise to never forget and standing with them to write a new chapter in this city’s future.”
