 “An exhibit is an object or collection of objects of public display in an art
gallery or museum or at a trade fair” (Oxford University Press, 2015)
In education, exhibits are collections of various products or outputs made by
students that are evidences of what they learned from their classes.

How are exhibits made?

The Smithsonian Institution (2002), founder of the world’s largest

compound of museums and research centers, conducted a research among
various museums in the United States. One of the key results of the study is five-
stage process that museums usually employ in developing exhibits. Students may
find this useful in the development of their HUMSS exhibit.
1
The five stages of exhibit development are the following:

1. Idea Generation - Exhibit ideas are gathered from internal Subject experts
or the interests of the museum’s intended audience.
2. Concept Development- In this stage, ideas generated are synthesized into
an exhibit proposal, which also specifies items to include, size, design, and the
cost of the exhibit. You will have to decide which objects from your list will
actually be included in the exhibit.
3. Design Development- In this stage, the overall layout and composition of
the exhibit is decided. Key decisions include the number of objects to be
included in the exhibit; the labels to be indicated; and the voice of the exhibit.
4. Fabrication ans Installation - Like building a puzzle, exhibit pieces are
woven together and installed at the exhibit venue. This includes setting of
furniture for the items and lighting and multimedia setup when necessary.
5. Post-Opening Activities - After an initial or pilot run, some museums correct
or enhance their exhibits based on visitor feedback.

Who are involved?

Here are some roles that you consider in exhibit development.

1. Content Specialist - ensures that each artifact appropriately and
accurately represents the content for exhibit.
2. Designer - The designer’s role is to make sure that the exhibit is appealing
to the various senses of the target visitor. This includes optimal use of space,
lighting, sound effects, and the like.

could be understood by the visitors whether old and young. This includes
checking the labels and all the words used to explain the exhibit.
4. Project Manager - serves as the overseer of the exhibit development
project. He/she make sure that the exhibit is don on time ans within the
resources and standards.
