Everything was Rosie on October 13, 2012 as the Museum celebrated its annual Rosie the Riveter Day.  This event honors the women of the 1940's who served on the homefront during World War II and contributed to bringing the war to an end while bringing social change to the workplace. These pioneers of the 20th century who attended the Museum's event shared their work experiences with Museum visitors.   Thank you Rosies! 

The Baltimore Chapter of the American Rosie the Riveter Association will be meeting at the Museum on Saturday, November 10 at 10:30am and all women of WWII who served on the homefront in jobs usually done by men and their family members with Rosie stories are invited to attend. At 11am, the Museum will honor veterans with a special recognition day and the Rosies will be there to share in that experience for honoring the military pilots and mechanics who flew and serviced the planes they built.
