Building the Future: STEM Education at the Herreshoff

As we close out 2024, the Herreshoff Museum celebrates a year of growth and innovation. Our commitment to hands-on STEM education has brought sailing, boat building, and career-ready skills to over 350 young people this year alone, many with full or partial scholarships thanks to your support. In our latest video, alumni share the lasting impact of these programs. Sailing instructor Kaia recalls the joy of teaching on a classic Herreshoff 12½, while boatbuilding alum Collin speaks of a "get-your-hands-dirty" experience that shaped his career. Oliver Moore, co-founder of Moore Brothers, highlights how skills learned here build not only craftsmanship but confidence. Each gift fuels programs that empower and inspire the next generation. Visit our campus, meet our students, and see how your support makes a difference. Join us in sparking curiosity and building the future. Thank you for your generosity.
