While the National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial is closed for repairs, the Pentagon Chapel and indoor 9/11 exhibit will be open to families and visitors to take in such displays as children’s artwork and tributes to Pentagon victims of 9/11. This display, part of Hearts Across America Quilts, is one of three pieces by children ages 8 to 18 from numerous towns across six states. It served as an art therapy project for children who experienced difficulties after witnessing the 9/11 events on TV.
