September 11, 2001 was a day of shocking violence and loss. But, in the aftermath, it was also a day of heroism and of community.

As planes bound for New York were being turned away, many of them found themselves being directed to the small town of Gander, in Newfoundland, Canada.

Almost seven thousand people landed in Gander on that day. It could have been impossible. It could have been overwhelming. But instead, the town opened its arms to those strangers.

Their story was turned into a Tony Award winning musical, Come From Away, and in the Drawing Room, Gander residents Oz Fudge and Brian Mosher share how those days changed their lives.
