The exhibition "Truong Son Pride" has received a lot of affection since its opening from the public, foreign guests and especially the veterans who have spent their youth for the country. The casual and ordinary stories about the lives of the girls in the Truong Son forest not only raised emotions for visitors but also helped us connect with historical witnesses.
The exhibition will be on display at the Vietnamese Women's Museum from April 22 to April 28. Visitors can expect to experience documentary photo series, inspiring short films calling them to action; to learn new skills through varied workshops, and visualise the impact of fashion through interactive installations.
