Interested in an exhibit opportunity?
We love to showcase month-long exhibits in our glass display case. The case is equipped with LED lights, five fixed shelves, locking doors, and a variety of museum-quality display accessories. Find details about measurements and accessories here. The case is located in the breezeway off of our Pine Street entrance. An application to exhibit is below.
We also have limited space on top of bookshelves, on walls, and on bulletin boards. Just ask us about your ideas for an exhibit.
