In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, The Exploratorium partnered with The Marigold Project to host the month-long installation Festival of Altars.

The deliverables included exhibition signage, artist placards, and digital monitors tied the floor of Gallery 2 together with the featured altars.

Signage introduced guest artists and explained content to guests. All materials were created to be bilingual in Spanish/English.

The map guided guests around the museum to see featured art, supplemented by adjacent artist placards. The map was also available for digital view.
