The brand new and improved website

Project Details

Service

Built from the ground up

The last site was built using Python which made it difficult for our client to update the site, so we made the switch to WordPress.

Service

Now for Mobile Devices

Because we switched to building the site on WordPress, it's more responsive for more devices.

Service

Updated User Experience

Our website no longer takes longer times to load and the photos of the collection are of higher resolution.

Service

Organized Closet

The collections and exhibits are in chronological order with updated tags and descriptions.
