As the host community, Federation deeply encourages all South Floridians to visit the groundbreaking installation. Viewers are empowered to responsibly explore and bear witness to the tragedy of October 7 while joining together in the hopeful plea that “We will dance again.”

A portion of ticket proceeds benefit the Tribe of Nova Foundation, formed in the aftermath of the attack to support the physical, spiritual and mental healing journey of the survivors and the bereaved families. Due to the sensitive and graphic nature of some of the content, the exhibit is recommended for ages 16-plus.
