In addition to the events below, our ship deck and the Tankerman’s cabin play space for kids is open most days of the week. See info on page TankerTime.
2025 marks the 24th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Since our exhibit on the 10th anniversary “The Mariners’ Response to 9/11,” PortSide has been committed to growing awareness of the significant role the maritime community had responding to the attacks. This Thursday night, from 6-9pm, our ship deck will be open for viewing the Tribute in Light. You can have quiet private time or talk to our ED Carolina Salguero who reported on 9/11 for eight months from Ground Zero the day of the attacks to the after effects around the city. Inside the Mary Whalen, you can see a small exhibit, watch the video “Boatlift” in the galley, and read related books and oral histories. #NeverForget
