Museum Seeks To Educate, Empower

Terrorism can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere.

That is the mantra at the nation's only terrorism museum, located in Denver.

The Center for Empowered Living and Learning, or The CELL, focuses on the history and evolution of terrorism around the world and in Colorado (such as ELF's attack in Vail, Alan Berg's assassination, etc.).

Melanie Pearlman, the museum's executive director, said it should come as no surprise that Colorado could be home to terrorist activity, and that the Zazi investigation is just another reminder.

"That we as a community need to be cognizant and vigilant and better educated to understand how we can mitigate that threat," she said.

The museum opened in February.
