I know as a mom that I want my daughter’s story to be known. I know I want people to know about her.
Tetris Kelly:
Survivors and producers of the October 7th massacre came together in New York City to talk about the tragedy that unfolded that day.
Lee Sassi:
So we had to hide under bodies — dead bodies — to shield ourselves from the grenades, and that’s what really kept us alive. The nine of us had survived out of the 40, we survived from hiding under these bodies.
Daniel Dvir:
I saw a bomb shelter, we almost got in. Lucky, we didn’t like everybody that was … that tried to save their life in the bomb shelter died afterwards from the hand granades of the terrorists. So lucky I didn’t go inside.

The Nova Music Festival Exhibit will showcase artifacts from the grounds, including recovered cars that were set on fire, porta potties with bullet holes, and recovered personal belongings.

I hope that everybody will have the place to spread the love. This is my big hope from this exhibit.
Daniel Dvir:
I want people to come here and just see the truth in their eyes.
