Opening Day for Swan Boats 2016

Celebrating the end of a record-setting winter and the onset of spring in New England Mayor Martin J. Walsh will host the 1st ride of the season as the popular Boston Swan Boats open at the Public Garden lagoon at ten a.m. on Saturday April 16. This annual rite is made possible thanks to the Paget family owners and operators of the Swan Boats 1st launched in 1877 by Irish immigrant and shipbuilder Robert Paget. Mr. Paget designed the Swan Boats after attending the opera Lohengrin in New York City. At the end of the opera the hero crosses a river in a boat drawn by a swan. Mayor Walsh will be joined on the 1st ride of the year with students from Boston Public Schools including the Ellis Mendell Elementary School and the Higginson Lewis K-8 School both in Roxbury. The students are drawing images of the Swan Boats in art class and their work will be randomly selected from all the drawings created. All of the artwork chosen will then be on display at Boston City Hall for 4 weeks beginning April 20....
