Exhibition Design Build & Consultancy
SALLY PAPPS:
"My focus, based in Nelson New Zealand, lies with small museums that are run on a low staffing level or volunteer basis.
From my experience in redeveloping Isel House I have extended my knowledge to other small museums and assisted with redevelopment and exhibition projects across the top of the South Island, West Coast and Canterbury.

From my experience in redeveloping Isel House I have extended my knowledge to other small museums and assisted with redevelopment and exhibition projects across the top of the South Island, West Coast and Canterbury.
Some of my strengths and experience include:
· Exhibition design and development · Restoration and facility project management · Set up and running of small museums · Establishing charitable trust status · Attracting funding and sponsorship · Interpreting research · Writing proposals and devising systems · Getting the local community involved and enamored |
I have a clear understanding of how small museums function and the needs and demands these institutions face. I can give advice objectively on most aspects of museum governance, collection and display, and have a strong network of colleagues and contacts that can offer support and advice to call on where required. I place a high value on the small volunteer based museums in our towns and hope to see them retain their own identity and build on their unique strengths. I am really keen to show people how to get the community involved and have some ownership and pride in their local cultural history."
