Contribute your Girl Scout Memorabilia as the Guam Museum Commemorate 90 years of Guam Girl Scouts

The Guam Girl Scouts were formed in 1935 and beyond cookie sales, have been a part of this island’s history and community, shaping generations of civic and political leaders and  members bearing witness to dramatic, political changes, typhoons, and even war. Since last year, the Guam Museum has been working on digitizing the archives of the Guam Girl Scouts, which includes thousands of articles and photos. 

In 2026 the Guam Girl Scouts is collaborating with the Guam Museum to highlight the history of their organization through an exhibit and is seeking loans and donations of items from the community.

Items include but are not limited to: Girl Scout uniforms and other products, photos, newspapers/magazine clippings, letters, oral histories or interviews

Those interested in sharing stories or donating/loaning items may email the Guam Museum curator, Dr. Michael Bevacqua, at michael.bevacqua@dca.guam.gov or call 671 – 989-4455. The museum may not be able to display all items collected due to space limitations.

Feel free to also contact Samantha Owens, Director of the Guam Girl Scouts at ggsi.director@gmail.com to coordinate donation of any materials. 

 

Deadline for submission is March 6, 2026.

If you enjoy the work the Guam Museum is doing, consider making a donation to the Guam Museum.

In her first solo show, Julia Birn presents Chewing on Static. She regards this body of work as an exploration of what it means to live in a life that no longer feels entirely familiar. Ms. Birn uses her work as a way to consider what happens when something changes the way one moves through the world, the relationship with oneself, and understanding of the future, as a result of chronic illness. Her paintings emerge from this unresolved experience, giving shape to the feeling of living with something that cannot always be explained or communicated. Through abstraction, fragmentation, and restricted palettes, the works hold onto that tension, allowing forms to shift and remain ambiguous. What emerges is a reflection of what it is like to live with a reality that has become difficult to recognise. The title of the exhibit, Chewing on Static speaks to the mental noise that comes from searching for clarity, questioning one's own experience, and trying to communicate something that refuses to become simple or certain. It is about what happens when one is forced to construct a new understanding of oneself and continue living within something that is unchosen. Through her work, Birn asks the viewer to enter a space where certainty is difficult to find, and to sit with what cannot be resolved. Julia Birn is an accomplished artist, graphic designer, and entrepreneur, who has participated in multiple large and small group shows in Guam since 2022. She has recently earned her BFA in graphic design from the Savannah College of Art and Design, Summa Cum Laude.
