The special exhibition Women Hold Up Half The Sky was inspired by the critically acclaimed book, Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into
Opportunity for Women Worldwide, by Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn.

Women Hold Up Half The Sky featured stories of women who have changed their lives through education, economic empowerment, courage, and hope. It challenged visitors to open their eyes, minds, hearts, and most of all, to take action to improve women and girls’ lives locally and globally.
