Inscription description
plaque 1: 9 / 11 / On the 11th of September 2001, al-Qaeda / terrorists flew hijacked aircraft into the North / and South towers of the World Trade Centre in / New York and the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. / A fourth hijacked plane, headed toward Washington DC, crashed in Pennsylvania, as the / passengers on board tried to overcome their / hijackers. Through the actions of 19 / hijackers, 2,977 people were killed, with victims from more than 90 / countries, 67 came from the UK.; plaque 2: Artwork / This artwork, titled 'Since 9 / 11' was created / using steel from the World Trade Centre / donated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Artist Miya Ando transformed / this into a powerful symbol of the events, causes and their consequences, creating a / place to directly confront the impact of / those attacks and to reflect on how / they have shaped all our lives.; plaque 3: Programme / This artwork was created as part of the / Education Programme of SINCE 9 / 11, a UK / charity. Our mission is to help teachers and / young people understand the events causes / and consequences of 9 / 11- we offer teaching, resources and guidance developed by the / UCL institute of Education, as well as / school visits and workshops delivered / directly to students.; plaque 4: Why at Queen Elizabeth Park? / The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic / games were a powerful symbol of hope, peace, and tolerance- the same values represented by SINCE 9 / 11. Today the Park receives visitors / from all over the world and is situated in the / heart of London's most diverse and / dynamic communities, making it the / artworks natural home.
