Serving on All Front: Pop-Up Museum Exhibit by 5-3-O Girls

About this event

Grant supported by the Essex County Community Foundation’s Essex County Veterans Fund.

Serving on All Fronts is a pop-up museum created by the organization 3-5-0 Girls. Featuring uniforms and artifacts spanning World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, and the Gulf War, the exhibit explores the long history of women serving alongside and in support of combat operations across generations of military history.

The exhibit highlights stories ranging from the first nurses of the American Revolution, to the women soldiers serving in Algiers during World War II, women Marines in Saigon during Vietnam, and the women continuing to make history on the front lines today. Through artifacts, uniforms, and personal stories, Serving on All Fronts challenges traditional ideas of what military service and sacrifice have looked like across American history, while emphasizing that women have always been part of the story.
