Our very first exhibition is all about a fantastic group of insects – the beetles. They are the most amazing creatures – and viewed up close many rival the beauty of butterflies, and others rival any monster in any film!
The beetle topic is presented as a group of four display stands, each on its own plinth.
Each stand is about 5′ long by 7′ high. As an alternative to the plinth mounted display stands we can make them as a wall hung displays too., or in a smaller format if required.
The plinth is almost bare so that the hosts can use it for their own messages.
Installation was completed March 2020.
