Visitors will see how a 14‑year‑old gymnast from Romania captivated the world, inspired generations of athletes, and set new standards for precision, artistry, and discipline. Through photographs and historical context, the exhibit will trace Comăneci’s journey from her early training in Romania to her rise as a global symbol of grace and determination.
The exhibit will also highlight her enduring influence on the sport—from the evolution of scoring systems to the way young gymnasts around the world train, dream, and push the boundaries of what is possible. Nadia’s legacy extends far beyond medals; she became a cultural icon whose impact continues to echo across sports, media, and international representation.

July 23: clovers daughter
clovers daughter is an independent artist creating music at the intersection of indie pop and alternative. Known for blending genres and mood-driven production, she focuses on crafting immersive listening experiences that invite audiences into emotionally detailed worlds rather than single moments.
Her debut EP, Bittersweet (April 30, 2025), introduced her as a songwriter drawn to the complexity of young love—capturing its warmth, uncertainty, and nostalgia. She followed with her first full-length project, Am I Worth It? (August 12, 2025), a 10-track album that explored the aftermath of betrayal, painting vivid emotional portraits of being wronged and the psychological weight that lingers long after. Her second EP, Fragile Feeling (February 18, 2026), continues that evolution, examining the painful, often unspoken sides of love with honesty and restraint.
Across three releases, clovers daughter has established a sound defined by genre fluidity, introspective themes, and a commitment to building cohesive, atmosphere-rich projects. As an independent artist, she continues to shape a body of work that prioritizes emotional depth, intentional storytelling, and sonic exploration.
