3 Sides to Every Story: Behind the Maple Leaf Exhibit Design

November 5 | 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Join exhibit designer John LoCastro for a behind-the-scenes look at The Maple Leaf traveling exhibit, currently on view at the Amelia Island Museum of History. The exhibit documents the 1864 sinking of this historic paddle-wheel steamer in the St. Johns River. Commissioned by the Museum of Florida History, LoCastro and his company, Synergy Design Group, worked closely with explorer Dr. Keith Holland and lead diver Lee Manley to shape the exhibit’s design and illustrations. In this Brown Bag Lunch, LoCastro will share how that collaboration and his long career in maritime-themed projects influenced the creative process that brought this compact, powerful exhibit to life.

Temporary Location for Fall Programs:

While the Maple Leaf exhibit is in the Lecture Hall through Dec. 7, this program will be at the Fernandina Beach Branch Library.
