Anti-Slavery and the Underground Railroad in Lenawee County, 2018

Design & Fabrication: Spaces to Experiences

This exhibit is the first new permanent exhibit the museum has installed in over 10 years.  The exhibit design utilizes a large bookcase from the museum’s collection as a display case for artifacts with the addition of some under-shelf LED lights, and vinyl graphics over the large windows in the gallery.  There is also an 1857 county plat map with graphic enhancement to show locations of known Underground Railroad stops and other anti-slavery supporters.

Transportation & Industry exhibit conceptualization, 2019

Design & Illustration: Spaces to Experiences

The museum was working on developing their next exhibit overhaul, focusing on transportation and industry in Lenawee County.  We worked with them to develop a conceptual exhibit layout and some basic illustrations to show possible investors for fundraising.  Final exhibit design and fabrication has not yet been commissioned.
