Veterans' Gallery Post-Phase I Construction

A volunteer's workstation - cataloguing bayonets







Temporary housing for all the objects that were in the gallery prior to renovation






Temporary uniform storage







Our makeshift barred entryway - we knew that pew would come in handy someday!






A view of the gallery entrance - note the beautiful khaki color






One of the curved walls that will form the outer ring of the displays










The same wall, as seen from another angle








The men pictured here are some of those that will be featured in a photographic exhibit of soldiers from Carver County




Another of the curved walls to form the outer ring of the exhibit - behind it is a brand-new storage closet for many of the things that won't be on display






The interior of the storage closet, which will be fitted with gun racks and uniform storage








The new wall. You can also see the ceiling, which was recently painted black.










The large case pictured here will house 5 mannequins dressed in different soldiers' uniforms that we have in the collection. This exhibit will change periodically to highlight different uniforms, branches, and Carver County soliders and veterans.


The photographic exhibit. This nook will showcase a photograph and name of each person from Carver County who has served in the military.
