Celebrating Girlhood: The 'Our Teen Years' Exhibition Expands to 5 Cities!

Our Teen Years Exhibition: A Nostalgic Journey for Gen Z Women

Recently, the innovative exhibition titled 'Our Teen Years' (うちらって乙女展(笑)) has garnered immense popularity, particularly among Gen Z women in Osaka and Tokyo, attracting over 2,000 attendees in just a short span of time. Due to this overwhelming response, Laughgaki Co., Ltd. has announced plans to extend the exhibition to three additional cities: Nagoya, Ishikawa, and Hiroshima.

The Exhibition's Concept

This exhibition aims to evoke the playful and often embarrassing memories that many women have from their teenage years. It focuses on behaviors and actions that might seem a bit cringeworthy in hindsight but are relatable and humorous. For example, visitors can explore displays centered on themes such as practicing a “natural duck face” or pretending to be asleep during late-night phone calls with crushes. These light-hearted themes resonate powerfully with attendees, evoking laughter and recognition of shared experiences.

Event Details

The first leg of this touring exhibition kicks off in Nagoya from August 21 to 24 and again from August 28 to 31, 2025, taking place at Gallery White & Black in the heart of the city. Its subsequent stops include Ishikawa from September 2 to 14 and wrapping up in Hiroshima from November 1 to 3 and again from November 8 to 9.

It fosters an environment where attendees can share their stories, laugh at their memories, and feel a collective connection with others who may have gone through similar phases of their lives.
