Props are great ways to create visual interest and add color.
They should:
- align with the theme of your exhibit or object
- compliment and enhance the narrative of your exhibit
They should not:
- distract viewers from the main object on display
- damage or compromise the original object on display
For inspiration, here are some props that have been used in past exhibits:
- Ribbon
- Tissue paper flowers
- Metal microfilm canisters
- Unwound tape from an irreparable VHS tape
- Fabric
Note: Please only provide items that you can retrieve when the exhibit closes. Make sure your name and contact information is with any object that you would like to pick up when the exhibit is over.
