On Thursday September 10 at 6 p.m., Laurel Historical Society (LHS) is hosting a free program in remembrance of 9/11 at the Laurel Municipal Center Chambers, featuring guest presenters Wayne Dzwonchyk and Lorraine Brooks. We are inviting residents of Laurel to join in person or virtually and share their own reflections about the event to be captured by LHS and archived for future generations.

Then, on Friday, September 11 at 6 p.m., join the City of Laurel - Government, also located in the Laurel Municipal Center Chambers at 8103 Sandy Spring Road, for a special commemorative program honoring and remembering those we lost on that tragic day.

LHS will also mount a small exhibit, “Laurel Remembers 9/11” at the Laurel Museum from September 4 to September 27, which will feature a book of remembrance signed by residents in the days after 9/11 and again on the 10th anniversary. Visitors will be invited to contribute to the book again for the 25th anniversary and add their reflections on the event looking back 25 years.
