MOF_190626_01.JPG: Milestones of Flight
Graduate students from the George Washington University designed this poster installation for an exhibition design course. The students selected topics related to the Boeing Milestones of Flight Hall, an exhibition that celebrates some of the most significant airplanes, rockets, and spacecraft in history.
The students worked closely with National Air and Space Museum designers, curators, editors, educators, and archivists to design their posters. The course provides them with valuable hands-on experience and prepares them for careers in the museum profession.
