Conserving the Bronze Doors: Summer 2023 

BECAUSE OF THE COMMUNITY, FOR THE COMMUNITY ✨
The Bronze Doors have been an icon of the Museum since 1936. They served as the original entrance to the Museum and are an incredible reminder to us that we are here because of the community and because of Newport News Shipbuilding.
Conserving the doors is a visible commitment to our purpose as an institution and to the community we strive to serve each day. Watch as our Conservation team devoted many weeks this summer to bringing these icons back to the way the artist intended. The before and after visuals are astounding!
Please come see the doors for yourself and be a part of their continuing legacy here at The Mariners'!
