The Girl Scout Museum and Archives was part of the Girl Scout National Historic Preservation Center at the Girl Scouts headquarters in New York City. It was located at 420 Fifth Avenue. The museum was founded in 1987 to help keep the history of Girl Scouts alive.
The collection included over 60,000 photos, 7,000 publications, and 650 uniforms. There was also an a/v collection that started in 1918.
Unfortunately, the museum is now permanently closed, but its history and items remain important to the Girl Scouts and anyone interested in their story.
