"If you want to learn about the World War II Homefront there is no better classroom than the San Francisco Bay Area. We have historic ships that are open to the public (and some of them even cruise the Bay!) and we have sites such as shipyards, military bases, and other infrastructure that supported the massive war effort. Many of these important resources have been preserved and are open to the public for entertainment and education. Best of all for local residents, they are each within less than a day's traveling time from anywhere in the Bay Area. Today we are announcing that many of these sites and organizations have banded together to form the World War II Homefront Alliance which will provide a unified story of World War II in the Bay Area while continuing to preserve the unique nature and contribution of each organization."

MORE ABOUT THE PARK

Rosie the Riveter / World War II Home Front National Historical Park is located on the San Francisco Bay in Richmond, California. Because Richmond contains more intact WWII Home Front sites than any other place in the USA, it was designated as the "flagship" site for telling the Rosie the Riveter/WWII Home Front story in the year 2000. We invite you to explore, learn and celebrate the social and cultural changes that took place during this pivotal time in history.


A number of sights have been chosen to represent the home front story throughout Richmond including the SS Red Oak Victory Ship, the Whirley Crane, the Rosie the Riveter Memorial at Marina Bay Park, the Japanese American Nurseries and many more. Start your tour of the Park at the Visitor's Center to pick up a full guide!
