"My love of art and culture drew me to New York City in the fall of 1997... The morning of September 11, 2001, found us in our 4th floor loft at 110 Liberty St. watching history unfold before our eyes...

"I returned to... the Bay Area in mid-October 2001. As the shock slowly wore off, I worked on a series of multi-media floral interpretations... As time goes on I continue to reflect on and process the events of 9/11 through a collection of art I call 'The Need To Remember.' I hope you find solace in its folds." - Janette MacKinlay http://theneedtoremember.com/

Some of Janette's art pieces will be exhibited, and her book Fortunate - A Personal Diary of 9/11 will be available. This event is a fundraiser for NYCCAN - The New York City Coalition For Accountability Now. NYCCAN is gathering signatures in New York City to place a referendum on the ballot in the November, 2009 General Election to mandate the formation of a new investigation into 9/11, one with subpoena power.

Prior to Janette's presentation, Jenn Rogar will perform some of the songs from her debut album Place Called Humanity. Jenn sings "... powerfully passionate songs about peace, justice, and social change that are described as healing." - from cdbaby.com/cd/rogarjenn

Jenn's songs will add a new dimension to this event. She's "a singer-songwriter / activist in the tradition of Joan Baez, Utah Phillips, Pete Seeger and Holly Near. Jenn purposefully writes songs to be a part of the renewed and growing Movement of those seeking to enhance and protect the fundamental rights of all living things." - From her website www.jennrogar.com/
