January 2025: Signal Flag Swags

Each weekend throughout the month of January come let your creativity fly at the Seaport Museum by making your own signal flag swags.


For centuries flags were the only form of communication between ships at sea and between ships and the shore. In the 19th century signaling with special flags developed into a system capable of passing several types of information and relatively elaborate messages. This even became a successful form of communication between crews who didn’t share a common language. Learn more about how sailors communicate using these vibrant flags that feature different patterns shapes and colors while making your own banner that spells out whatever message you like. There will also be opportunities to use your new-found skill by decoding others’ signal flag messages.
