Join the National Parks of Boston for a two-day extravaganza celebrating the role of women workers at the Charlestown Navy Yard!


Thousands of women worked at the Charlestown Navy Yard during World War II. They fulfilled roles from painters to welders, and riveters to sheet metal workers. Their efforts played a critical role in the outcome of the war and left a lasting mark on American history. Come join us in remembering and celebrating the work of these Shipbuilding Women of the Navy!


Not only will there be tours, talks, hands-on activities, and music...there will also be a swing dance with a band next to the USS CONSTITUTION on Pier One! Check out the website for the schedule of events, which are all family friendly and FREE!
