Steinbrenner Field as community members, first responders and veterans gathered for the 25th Anniversary 9\/11 Memorial Ceremony. The stadium\u2019s World Trade Center Memorial anchored by replica Twin Towers on a Pentagon-shaped base served as a powerful backdrop.<\/p>\n<p>The emotional heart of the ceremony beat brightest through a deeply moving community art exhibition, highlighting a powerful creative tribute. Created by, Ann Rascoe, a resident at the Toby Weinman Residence on the Menorah Life campus in St. Petersburg, who was welcomed as an honored guest. Poured from a place of deep remembrance, Rascoe\u2019s three 9\/11 prints were donated to the Veterans Art Center in Tampa. The original paintings belong to the 9\/11 Memorial &amp; Museum in New York City. More than just canvas and paint, her artwork created a visual sanctuary where visitors paused to find shared comfort and reflection.<\/p>\n<p>For Rascoe, seeing her three paintings displayed at the center of such a historic milestone provided a profoundly meaningful platform that validated her artistic purpose. This wonderful tribute beautifully demonstrated how creative expression empowers seniors and honors their personal history, giving them a vibrant way to share their living legacy with the community.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jewishpressgulfcoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/2026-10-19\/9p2.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48861\" class=\"wp-image-48861 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/9p2-300x182.jpg\" alt=\"\u00a0\" width=\"300\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-48861\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ann Rascoe\u2019s artwork on display at the memorial Beneath a quiet morning sky, hearts joined as one at&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":432629,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[202,204,203,199,201,200],"class_list":["post-432628","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-st-petersburg","tag-st-pete","tag-st-pete-headlines","tag-st-pete-news","tag-st-petersburg","tag-st-petersburg-headlines","tag-st-petersburg-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/432628","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=432628"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/432628\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/432629"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=432628"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=432628"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=432628"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
