Welcome to Jeff Bernstein Exhibition Design, Inc.

From kelp forests to a 3rd century synagogue, Morse’s first telegram to NASA’s Sojourner Mars Rover, and much more, we’ve offered up authentic experiences since 1977. We seek out the artifacts, engineer the interactives, see to the conservation, and undertake the planning to create exhibitions which engage visitors, give meaning, and impart ideas.

Visitors Experience

Our exhibitions make content accessible to visitors of diverse ages, capabilities, interest levels, and cultural backgrounds. We take care to provide displays and interactives which appeal to everyone in a family. How we work

Telling The Story

What Makes Us Different

Three of our most effective approaches to imparting ideas are creating context, highlighting key content by making it interactive, and authenticating the exhibit experience. These methods pique interest, facilitate understanding, and help make a visit a cherished memory.
