  • 1.  Exhibit Rental Companies

    Posted 03-02-2015 07:24 PM
    Hello AAMers,
    I am trying to source some companies to rent affordable exhibits from. So far I have only found Exhibit Envoy and would really like to get some references to similar companies that rent out museum quality exhibits. Any suggestions please?
    Thank you!

    I'm not sure what your definition of "affordable" is but the Smithsonian's SITES program is another exhibit rental option:

    Just took a look at their current offerings, some pretty cool stuff in there!

    Try MAAA's ExhibitsUSA http://www.eusa.org/ for a wide range of exhibition price points.

    We have a new traveling exhibition (science/natural history focused) that will be available in 2016.  The cost threshold considered to be affordable varies widely among museums, so I'm not sure how our price aligns with your available resources, but I think our exhibit is reasonably priced.  If you would like further information, please message me and I'll be happy to send you the details.  If you will be attending the annual meetings in Atlanta, I suggest visiting the Museum Expo, where we (along with many other exhibit providers) will be exhibiting.  There, you'll be able to gather info about a wide variety of travel exhibit content in one convenient location. 

        Cheers -
