For my project, I chose to build an exhibit on the Historic American Merchant Marine Survey (HAMMS). We were required to select a location for our exhibit, so I chose the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. Included on this page are some of the materials I produced as part of that project.
Obviously, this exhibit was never produced. Also note that given the limited time, not all the photos or materials are actually from HAMMS (which the instructor was fine with). As a historian, it was a strange experience to be loose with facts, and I think it was a useful lesson about having to be careful with exhibit designers, who may have a different agenda than exhibit curators.
