Northport and East Northport Galleries:

A photographic mural of 9/11 responders will be on display in the Northport and East Northport Library galleries for the month of September.

The mural depicts the first responders during the days and weeks following the terrorist attacks in New York City on September 11, 2001.

More than 50,000 workers from various walks of life descended on the city’s financial district to assist. Some of these first responders were trained rescue workers and medical professionals, while other were volunteers such as clergy, construction workers, electricians, veterinarians and counselors.

The mural, prepared by the Library, will remain on display through September 30.
