31 Heroines of March & Heroines Quilt Exhibition
What we did:
To celebrate Women's History Month 2010, Girl Museum invited the public to submit their girlhood heroines for the 31 Heroines of March project. Each day, a new heroine was featured on our blog with an image and short essay. Here is the result- our virtual Heroines Quilt. You can scroll through to read the Quilt in order or select random pictures-- it is all up to you!
