The Conservancy is proud to present a new digital exhibition, “Transatlantic Trailblazers: The Women Behind The Art & Engineering of the SS United States,” which will open in March as we celebrate Women’s History Month.

Exploring the many contributions that women made to the engineering, design, art, and decor of America's Flagship, this exhibition showcases the work of pioneering women like Hildreth Meière, Constance Smith, Mira Jedwabnik Van Doren, Kaplan, Dorothy Marckwald and Anne Urquhart among others.

"First Ladies of the Sea: The SS United States’ Transatlantic Trailblazers" will provide an in depth look at the work that went into developing our latest digital exhibition, "Transatlantic Trailblazers: The Women Behind the Art & Engineering of the SS United States" and provide further insight and analysis into the leading roles women played in creating the great symbol of our nation.

This is the first of several forthcoming events in conjunction with this exciting digital exhibition, including our donor-exclusive "Evening with the Curators" event being planned for later this year.
