Come visit the USS Constitution Museum as we commemorate Constitution’s victory over HMS Guerriere during the War of 1812. Step into the role of the courageous crew who defeated Guerriere by getting a tattoo (temporary!) and learning the steps the crew needed to follow to fire Constitution’s cannons. Visitors can show their artistic skills by adding their own flare to George Ropes’ Constitution vs. Guerriere battle scene or creating a Shrinky Dink piece of art as part of our Summer Maker Series.
