A Unique Testament to the Rescue and Recovery Workers At Ground Zero.
To mark the end of the rescue and recovery effort at Ground Zero, which was completed many months earlier than the most optimistic expectations, ArtAID distribute a special "Thank You" to those that worked tirelessly at the site of the former World Trade Center. Featuring a piece of steel beams discovered in the rubble in the form of a cross, a banner was also produced and signed by hundreds of workers at the closing ceremony at St. Paul's Chapel.
