May I present the latest exhibition at the Museum of Danish America: In Search for Zion – The Danish-American Mormon Movement.

This exhibition is made by me, Sarah, the Danish Exhibition Intern. The exhibition tells the story of the first great wave of Danish migration led by Mormon converts. The Mormon movement played a significant role in shaping Danish-American history and as a Master’s degree student of Religious Studies I am very excited to shed light on this part of Danish-American migration.

I am deeply thankful that I got the opportunity to do this internship and making this exhibition. Words can’t describe how grateful I am!

I have no doubt that the skills that I have gained during my time at the museum will be applicable to my career moving forward – hopefully at a museum!

A big thanks to Scan Design and Museum of Danish America for making this possible!
