Traveling Exhibition about Estonia Visits North America in Celebration of the Country’s 100th Birthday.
It is one of the largest of its kind, the exhibition first opened on the West Coast at Stanford University, where it was displayed as part of a major Baltic studies conference from June 1-3, 2018. From Stanford, the exhibition traveled to Toronto, then Boston and with stops planned for Chicago and Washington.

Keiu Telve, the traveling exhibition project manager, said: “The idea for this kind of traveling exhibition was born in communication with Estonians abroad, in order to make it possible for them to be part of celebrating Estonia’s 100th birthday. The exhibition pavilion not only tells the story of this small country but also gives you a real sense of being in Estonia. The picturesque landscapes, smiling faces of the Estonians, and their stories help to bring the Estonia’s story to life. The exhibition can be seen as a miniature Estonia traveling to audiences who cannot visit Estonia itself,“ said the traveling exhibition project manager Keiu Telve of the Museum of Occupations. „Estonian experiences and perseverance are worth to be shared with the world. While Estonia is a small country, it has a story to share that can inspire people all over the world.”.....
