As exhibit designers, our job is to be storytellers. The experience of going to a well designed museum is not so different from watching a well-made movie. A good museum leads you through its exhibits using all the storyteller’s tricks. Surprise. Suspense. Originality. Empathy for the people (and sometimes critters) you meet along the way. A good museum involves you, pulls you in, makes you think. It makes learning so fun that you never stop to realize that you’re being taught.
 For its museum jobs, Côte Blanche Productions employs the best specialists available, such as internationally-renowned muralist Robert Dafford, left. |

 Professional design and a little imagination can bring out the best in even modestly budgeted exhibits, such as our History Room at Southdown Plantation Museum.

Côte Blanche Productions has been active in museum and exhibit design since 1981. Exhibit text, trail signage, dioramas, orientation videos, interactive exhibits: we’ve done it all, both as overall designer / general contractor and as element-specific subcontractor. Most of our museum work has been in Louisiana, where we’ve helped to tell the story of its historic sites (Louisiana State Capitol Visitors’ Center), ways of life (Jean Lafitte National Park and Preserve Acadian Culture Centers in Eunice, Thibodaux, and Lafayette), industries (Louisiana Cotton Museum), cultures (Chitimacha Indian Reservation Visitors Center), fauna and flora (Tickfaw State Park), folklife (Bayou Lafourche Folklife and Heritage Museum), and grandeur (Southdown Plantation Museum).
