Exhibition specifications
This exhibition is highly adaptable and can be configured in many ways. For instance, if your exhibition
space is smaller than 2,000 sq. ft., we could edit out one or more of the tableaus. If your exhibition space
is larger, we often look for ways to include community participation through our Milagros workshop,
work with related regional collections and archives to be part of the installation, or, given enough lead-time,
we have additional tableau ideas in development that could be added to the exhibition.
• 2,000 sq.ft. is the recommended minimum exhibition space for the full installation.
• Temporary wall partitions (provided by host gallery) are used to divide the gallery space
into discreet “rooms".
• Specifications given below provide object measurements and recommended minimum
space requirements.
