EXHIBITIONS
The primary focus of Girl Museum is on research and exhibitions. We have four unique series of exhibitions planned that will run throughout the year. Each show is based on original research utilizing still images, audio and video. At present we have several exciting projects in production in the USA and New Zealand.
