Inside The Hive

At the George B. Dorr Museum of Natural History, I developed text, designed graphics, and installed the exhibit Inside the Hive. The interpretation accompanies an observation hive that was installed in the museum as a part of a senior’s thesis. The observation hive allows visitors to observe the honeybees’ complex behavior safely. Visitor learning is provoked through the observation hive, text panel, 3D printed shelves, and a shadowbox—Native Bees: The Original Pollinators. This shadowbox was added after the initial installation of Inside the Hive to help visitors understand that honeybees are not native to the United States. I created the box as the final for a course in wild bee ecology.
