Dive into the world of sailing with interactive, high-tech exhibits where you can design boats, try steering, and even create a personalized burgee to take home. Located in the historic 1894 Armory in the heart of Newport, the museum celebrates sailing’s rich history and the incredible people—designers, Olympians, shipbuilders, and more—who have shaped the sport. Don’t miss this special opportunity to explore, connect, and be inspired!
