Rosie the Riveter Day
March 21 @ 3:00 pm
As part of the City’s celebration of Women’s History Month, which is celebrated during the month of March in recognition of the contributions and achievements of women throughout history, all are welcome to attend this event that will honor women who have served in the United States military. In addition, there will be a free public showing of the film “Six Triple Eight.” The film features the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, which is an all-Black and all-female battalion during World War II.
