Salisbury Association Unveils Refreshed Academy Building Exhibit Space.

The Salisbury Association held an Open House September 13 to introduce its redesigned exhibit space. The improvements include increased prominence for the recently conserved Holley pocketknife collection, a fresh and illuminating new way to showcase the rest of the Salisbury Association’s permanent collection, and a new Land Trust display that includes trail maps and other valuable information.

It was designed pro-bono by Chris Pouler, a professional designer of exhibits and television news sets. Chris is the husband of Salisbury Association Trustee Abeth Slotnick.

In addition to Pouler and several Trustees who worked on the project, our thanks go out to the following individuals who provided their valuable services: James Clark—graphics layouts, Duane Jones—installation of a new wall, Mark and Matt Shaggy—construction of wall panels, Carrie Babigian— custom fabrication of cherry display rack, Cory Wiggins—painting, and Ghi Sign—printing of graphics and interpretative panels.

Acknowledgment: We are grateful to Joseph Meehan and Louis Hecht for their beautiful photographs used throughout the website. Many thanks also to Carolyn Grimaldi, John Harney, Leo Nadeau, Don Perdue, Scott Whelan, and trustees too numerous to mention who provided other photos.
