Last year, for the first time in history, the @olympics were postponed. For the @olympicmuseum, the pandemic’s impact was twofold: not only was the Olympic calendar disrupted, but the museum itself was forced to close its doors indefinitely. In the face of this unprecedented situation, resilience brought about a period of intense creativity. 👩‍🎨
