Taylor Swift Pop-Up Exhibit

The Museum unveiled a pop-up exhibit featuring a selection of items related to Taylor Swift's The Life of a Showgirl album on December 5, 2025. The limited-run display is part of the Museum's comprehensive gallery experience and is included with general admission. It runs through January 9, 2026. 

The items on display are:

• A corset designed by The Blonds, Bob Mackie vintage feather headpiece and Christian Louboutin "Miss Z Strass" heels Swift wore in an ad promoting The Life of a Showgirl: The Crowd Is Your King Edition, a shimmering pink Target-exclusive edition of her 2025 album.
• A megaphone, director's chair, and paint cans Swift used as props in the commercial.

These artifacts are among several of Swift's items currently on view at the Museum. Her contributions to country music are represented with artifacts in the Museum's core exhibition, Sing Me Back Home. Additionally, artifacts from the "Speak Now" portion of Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour are on display in the exhibition American Currents: State of the Music, located adjacent to the new pop-up exhibit, and artifacts from the "Fearless" and "Red" sets of the tour are on display in the Taylor Swift Education Center.
