EVENT
Preschool Summer Series: Working Against Water Pollution
July 1, 2021
10:00 am–10:45 am
Join Waterworks Museum Education Staff live at the museum to learn about ways to keep surface water clean and help the earth!
First, we will read, “Not for me please, I choose to Act Green.” Then we will practice “acting green” by cleaning up a pretend pond. Finally, we will make happy fish to swim in our newly cleaned ponds.
Cost: $5 per participant. All participants may be accompanied by up to two adults at no additional charge. In accordance with the Governor’s latest mask advisory, face coverings for this event are only required for those over two years of age who have not yet been vaccinated.
To see more sessions in this series, check Thursdays at 10 am on our events calendar June through August.
Upcoming Events
Great Engines Hall
The centerpiece of the Waterworks Museum is its collection of steam engines. Three original coal-powered, steam-driven water pumps are preserved at the Museum and are monuments to 19th century technology and innovation. Leavitt, Worthington, and Allis stand in the Great Engines Hall and reach more than 3 stories tall. Walk around each and see the multitude of perfectly engineered parts that pumped million gallons of freshwater a day into the City of Boston.
