Rosie the Riveter Day This Saturday at the Military Aviation Museum

The Military Aviation Museum is hosting their National Rosie the Riveter Day event at their facility in Pungo, Virginia this coming Saturday, March 25th, 2023. It should be an incredible participatory event for everyone interested in learning how women did their part in helping build the Arsenal of Democracy during WWII. To learn more about what the Military Aviation Museum has planned, read their press release below…

Everyone is encouraged to dress like a Rosie! We’ll have Bandanas available at the Museum all day. A work station in the Army Hangar will allow you to try your own hand at riveting, and for those not sure of their skills? Two of the Museum's own Fighter Factory mechanics will be on hand to demonstrate how riveting is still done on our aircraft today!

The reading corner, hosted by the Slover Library will feature Rosie themed stories. The day will even include a session on how to do your own WWII Rosie the Riveter Hairstyle by the Living Historians from Ghosts of the Battlefield.

The event is included in your museum admission and Museum Members get in Free!
