San
Francisco Maritime National Historical Park
This
unique Park, located at the west end of San Francisco's Fisherman's
Wharf, includes the fleet of historic vessels at Hyde Street Pier,
the Maritime Museum, and the Maritime Museum Library. Each year:
over a half million visitors board turn-of-the-century ships and
tour the Museum; hundreds learn traditional arts -- like boatbuilding
and woodworking -- in Park classes and workshops; and thousands
of schoolchildren spend the night aboard the 1895 schooner C.A.
Thayer as part of an innovative educational program. The Park offers
history, music and craft programs for all ages, and provides unique
opportunities for docents, interns and volunteers to become part
of history!
