Join us at the Waterworks Museum on Thursday, October 16th from 6pm to 8pm for the opening of a brand new exhibition, 'Fueled by Fire: Coal & Steam at the Chestnut Hill High Service Pumping Station.'

Inspired by the recent loss of our iconic smokestack, this exhibit explores the historic use of coal at the Chestnut Hill High Service Pumping Station, the equipment used to turn that coal into steam, and the complicated legacy of the role of fossil fuels in industrialization.

Doors will open at 6pm and light refreshments will be served.

Space is limited so please help us monitor capacity by reserving your FREE ticket today.
