Southeastern has three exhibits available for member organizations to host at their location. They are companions to virtual exhibits on the New York Heritage website.
The exhibits are free to borrow for a period of four weeks. Borrowers must make arrangements to pick up and drop off the exhibit at the Southeastern office in Highland, NY. The exhibits have either 4 or 5 banners that collapse into their stands, making them easy to transport and setup.
Please contact Jen Palmentiero at Southeastern if you are interested in hosting an exhibit at your organization.
