Rosie the Riveter Trust - Press & Media

We’re seeking creative interpretations of Rosie—past, present, and future—through painting, photography, textiles, digital art, poetry, and more. Let’s celebrate her transformation from a WWII symbol to a cultural icon of progress, empowerment, and equity!

Rosie the Riveter Trust will commemorate the 25th anniversary of Rosie the Riveter/WWII Home Front National Historical Park with a special event on National Rosie the Riveter Day, Friday, March 21, 2025. The event, held at the park’s Visitor Education Center in Richmond, CA, will feature original WWII ‘Rosies,’ local officials, and community members signing a declaration honoring the park’s milestone. This celebration marks the beginning of a yearlong series of activities, including a community art contest, monthly speakers and tours, and a Rosie Rally festival in June. The public is invited to attend. For more information, visit www.rosietheriveter.org.
