Rosie the Riveter celebration

Join us May 16 as the Museum honors the women who kept America working during World War II. Visitors can hear stories about the era and be there for a noon ceremony honoring Rosies and veterans in attendance.

At 2:30 PM you can join in as we try to set a world record for the largest gathering of people dressed as a Rosie the Riveter.
All you need do is adhere to the dress requirements:

  • A red bandana with large white polka dots
  • Red knee socks
  • A dark blue, long-sleeve cotton work shirt (but not denim)
  • Dark blue cotton or denim pants 
  • Black work-style boots.
