This sponsorship is to support the remodel of one of our current Exhibits. Over the next several years, the museum aims to update a majority of it’s current exhibits to engage a younger generation of visitors. Updating lighting, video, audio components, historical references and restructuring the exhibit itself are just some of the things we look at improving. Our goal is to improve the engagement through the art of storytelling while also adding a hands-on, interactive learning component.
