Gerald R Ford Presidential Museum & Library
Role: Art Director, Designer, Animator
At the core of the Museum is the permanent exhibit, which allows visitors to experience highlights from President and Mrs. Ford's lives. The exhibit teaches democratic citizenship and allows for quiet reflection. In addition to the permanent exhibits, changing temporary exhibits draw artifacts from Museums all over the country.
The Ford Museum opened to the public in September 1981 and is part of the Presidential libraries system of the National Archives and Records Administration, a Federal agency.
The Museum re-opened in 2016 after a 13 million dollar renovation, which now includes a learning center.
Gallagher & Associates contracted us to develop graphics and animation for the video portions for the permanent installations on Gerald Ford's life and Legacy.
