Following the 9/11 attacks, young people around the world created art in response to the violence they had witnessed. This program will explore the role of art-making and art therapy to process grief and trauma, with a focus on two organizations created in the wake of 9/11: The World Trade Center Family Center and America’s Camp, a summer sleepaway camp for young relatives of 9/11 victims. Moderated by Executive Vice President of Collections & Chief Curator Dr. Jan Ramirez, this discussion brings together America’s Camp artist-in-residence Traci Molloy, clinical psychologist and WTC Family Center consultant Dr. Tom Demaria, and 9/11family member Amy Gardner, who participated in art activities offered through both organizations.
