MEdia

Catch the self-expression express headed to the world* of MEdia—a world celebrating language, communication styles and all forms of media and messaging: television, books, art, theatre, fashion, the internet, magazines and more. Are you a MEdia diva? This is the place for you!

Find your voice, and explore various forms of message-sending (visually, orally and written) through these expressive activities:

	Mold those messages: Get ready to shape media for yourself, your community and the world by taking part in hands-on arts, film and communication activities with working experts in the field.
	Do the time warp: Travel back in time and checkout handmade Girl Scout uniforms from 1912 onward. Did you know Girl Scout Brownies started in the 1920s? Scope-out vintage skirts, pant-suits, vests and more during this trip down memory lane.
	Cut & snip: Do you love making collages? Give old magazines new meaning by reshaping already existing messages and photos to create a clever collage.
	Creatively capture your world: Browse an eclectic exhibit of artwork and vote for your finalist favorite in our Art Legacy contest, open to Girl Scouts in grades K-12. Categories include painting, drawing, comic art, collage, photography, recycled art and more. Want to enter this competition and complete requirements for your Artist Legacy badge? Register now.
