Last night was the Gala for the Re-opening of the National Museum of American History. I have worked there since last September as the designer for the Albert H. Small Documents Gallery. This gallery is intended to exhibit precious documents related to American History. The opening exhibit features the hand-written White House copy of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address!
So, finally last night was the opening - and what an opening it was! For those of you who want to see pictures check out Clare and Jer at the Gala!
There's so much more to tell - like the fact that the staff were all in hard hats up until a couple days ago, and that tensions have been more than a little high, but the end result is that it is done, and I'm so proud!
The museum is beautiful and the gallery is lovely. I hope all of you will come down to visit and see it for yourself.
