#FreeFunFridays @ The Waterworks — July 14
It’s almost here! #FreeFunFridays at the Waterworks Museum is set for Friday, July 14! We are looking forward to hosting hundreds of visitors (more than 500 last year!) and celebrating water!
Our partners and supporters will be sharing fun activities that focus on history, engineering, water science and more. Join us for stories, splashing, and special guests. We thank the Highland Street Foundation for partnering with us in 2017 and helping to make this event possible.
Clif Bar & Company
We also want to thank Clif Bar & Company, who will be sharing some delicious treats that will be sure to energize the crowds!
More details to come! We look forward to hosting you at the Waterworks!
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.
