Planning for Redesign of City Hall Exhibit Lighting
To hire a qualified museum lighting professional to develop a museum lighting plan.
Looking for ways to expand their ability to share history with the public, being able to use the hallway at the city hall as a display space would be a huge step forward towards that goal. Working with the city to turn the hallway space into a museum gallery they focused on a grant to hire a consultant who understands how lighting works and the needs of both the public and conservation of objects on display.
A lighting plan was completed to help light historical displays and pictures representing Pine City's history on the main floor of the Pine City Hall. With the acquisition of this plan, they now have a chance to better develop a space to share artifacts and pictures of Pine City history with community members and visitors.
