The CELL - Denver, CO - History Museums on Waymarking.com

"The Counterterrisom Education Learning Lab (The CELL) is a non-profit institution dedicated to addressing the most important global issue of our time – terrorism. Its exhibits and programs provide a comprehensive look at the security and related social challenges that face civilized societies today. The CELL exists to educate citizens on the realities of today’s global terrorism threats, and seeks to empower both individuals and organizations with the knowledge and the tools to proactively effect change. The CELL is located within the Denver Civic Center Cultural Complex, across from the Denver Art Museum. The CELL is founded by Larry A. Mizel and is affiliated with the Mizel Museum.

The organization’s exhibit, Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere: Understanding the Threat of Terrorism, is experiential and interactive using state-of-the-art multimedia tools to educate its visitors. It is the only exhibit of its kind in the world. The mission of this exhibit is to advance and disseminate information about terrorism and the ideologies that attempt to justify and drive its proliferation. The CELL strives to deepen public understanding by encouraging visitors to think about the moral, philosophical, legal and existential questions raised by terrorist organizations, and the best known policies employed to combat such current and future threats to American citizens and people around the world. These are not easy questions. The CELL intends to encourage community involvement and activism, providing patrons with information to help them prepare for and help to prevent the next terrorist attack." (from (visit link) )
