Jewish Experience in Elgin Portable Museum Exhibit.

“I want something that can be put up by 3 little old ladies.”

  • Jewish Experience Museum Booth
    Front of Jewish Exhibit
  • Giving Section Jewish Experience Booth
    Giving Panel Booth Section – 8′ x 8′
  • Immigration Panel Layout 8′ x 16′

That was the parameter I had to start with.
The others were:
Wanted it to be 20’ x 20’.
Needed to be able to fit multiple venues.
Needed to be modular so some sections could be removed.
Each section needed to be able to stand on its own (story wise).
Needed to support display cases.
Needed to support a self-running video.

I used pop-up trade show display frames because they were very light weight and portable.
The panels were a rigid plastic with a polycarbonate laminate for durability.
Then entire display fit in eight rolling cases each weighing less than 40 lbs.
