Rosie the Riveter is a memorial dedicated to the people in Richmond who helped with the war efforts.  The exhibits talk about the history of the city, the jobs that people did in that area, and how much has changed up to now.  The museum is a little hard to find as it is not easily visible, hidden between some stores and buildings.  You’ll have to pass through a security gate to get in but there is free parking and free admission. The gift shop sells Rosie the Riverter bandanas and the displays seem pretty new. Short films play every half hour on the bottom floor.
