The
Result
R&P staff had the pleasure of attending opening day, and the gallery was filled with excited children climbing the treehouse, picking fruit, and catching fish, while older children tested their sustainability knowledge. It was a hub of activity, with opportunities for all ages and abilities. The new gallery is a center for the community; a space that will instill municipal pride and foster neighborhood connections.
R&P were responsive, flexible, creative, and took an open approach that has made the TD Explore Zone a success. I will certainly bring R&P on board for future projects and recommend them ... based on their organized and creative approach to design and illustration in the exhibition world.Lynn Saffery, Museum Manager, Museum of Surrey
