Prince Albert, the only son of Grace Kelly / Princess Grace, and ruler of the tiny principality of Monaco – the size of New York’s Central Park, extends a special invitation to everyone in the United States:

” I am deeply touched by your interest in my  mother and her rich legacy. Most of the world knows my  mother first as a Hollywood film actress, then as the princess of Monaco. 

She was indeed a beautiful and talented  woman and a fashion icon but that is just the surface of her life.

She left a successful Hollywood acting  career to pursue her heart. During her lifetime, she became a United Nations  advocate for children and an international spokesperson for arts and culture. 

She also established an enduring legacy as  president of the Monaco Red Cross and through the Princess Grace  Foundation,  which is dedicated to identifying and assisting emerging  talents in theatre,  dance and film by awarding grants in the form of  scholarships, apprenticeships  and fellowships.

‘Those of us who were fortunate enough to  know my mother, her family and friends, knew her to be a genuine, warm and  loving woman. A woman who always put her family first.

I  hope that through experiencing this  exhibition, you will be able to get a glimpse of the real Grace Kelly, the woman  beyond the icon, my mother.”
