The Woman Behind The Icon

Known for all things beauty, Hollywood glam, and gorgeously royal, Grace Kelly will truly be an iconic figure for a lifetime. And although the majority of us were not even born before her unexpected death from a fatal car crash at age 52, Grace Kelly is still present through an exhibit for us to get to know the real her. How? That would be through her hometown museum in Doylestown, Pennsylvania called Michener Art Museum. Hola!

Located just a little over an hour from the NYC, Michener Art Museum is showcasing this special exhibit titled: “From Philadelphia to Monaco: GRACE KELLY” from now until January 26th, which is filled with dresses of every phase of her fairy tale life to personal objects housed in the Palace of Monaco to awards, film clips to even acting career souvenirs she acquired. The entire exhibit truly tributes to all of her life accomplishments…in a stylish tone, of course!

Prince Albert of Monaco was present at its opening last week to tour the exhibition with his wife, Princess Charlene of Monaco. He even took the time to appear in a filmed tribute {click here!} to his mother, which plays in the exhibit as well, in which he mentioned, “she left a successful Hollywood acting career to pursue her heart.”

Not only does this exhibition trace the unique path Grace Kelly took from Philadelphia to Monaco, but it also invites viewers to come in and discover her life, beyond the fairy tale.
