Proudly Based In
Minnesota
Evergreen Creative has fabricated museum exhibits for Minnesota institutions since 1985 — from the Science Museum of Minnesota and the University of Minnesota Bell Museum to regional history centers, children's museums, and cultural institutions statewide. Based in Roseville, our team works directly with curators, exhibit designers, and project managers to build environments that are visually compelling, educationally rigorous, and engineered for the demands of daily public use.
We partner with Minnesota museums and cultural organizations as a fabrication partner — executing on established designs or developing build-ready solutions from concept through installation. Whether the project is a single interpretive display or a full gallery environment, every element we fabricate is built to the standards Minnesota's best institutions expect.
FAQ | Minnesota Museum Exhibit Services
-
We provide complete museum exhibit fabrication across Minnesota, meaning everything from artifact mounts, reader rails, vitrines, and display cases to sculptural elements, 3D models, interpretive panels, and full immersive gallery environments. Each element is engineered to curatorial specifications, visitor accessibility standards, and the long-term durability requirements of high-traffic public institutions.
We've built for the Science Museum of Minnesota, the University of Minnesota Bell Museum, and numerous regional history centers and cultural institutions statewide.
-
Both. We partner with exhibit design firms, curatorial teams, and project managers as a dedicated fabrication partner, executing on established drawings and specifications. We also offer design-development support when needed, translating concepts into build-ready scopes, recommending materials and finishes, and ensuring every element is feasible, durable, and installation-ready before a single piece is cut.
-
Yes! Immersive environments are a significant part of our Minnesota museum work. We've fabricated the hanging planetary installation for the Bell Museum's Life in the Universe gallery, interactive exhibit components for the Science Museum of Minnesota's Math Moves exhibit, and themed scenic environments for natural history and cultural collections. These builds require a fabricator that can engineer complex three-dimensional elements while maintaining the visual precision and finish quality museum environments demand.
-
We fabricate exhibit structures designed to house and support interactive and multimedia elements, including mechanical interactives, touchscreen enclosures, projection mapping surfaces, AV mounting systems, triggered audio housings, and integrated lighting. We collaborate with your AV and technology partners to ensure the physical fabrication and the technology work together from day one.
-
We produce custom reader rails, directional and wayfinding signage, environmental graphics, educational labels, and interpretive panels for museums and cultural institutions across Minnesota. All signage is designed for clarity, ADA accessibility compliance, and long-term durability in environments where daily visitor contact is constant.
-
Yes - in fact, sculptural fabrication is one of our core capabilities. We build life-sized animal and figure sculptures, historical replicas, abstract centerpiece installations, and large-scale dimensional elements using foam carving, composite materials, steel armature, and scenic finishing techniques. These elements are engineered with the structural integrity and finish durability that museum environments require over years of public use.
-
We fabricate custom display cases from enclosed vitrines and pedestals to wall-mounted and recessed installations. Each case is engineered for artifact security, conservation requirements, and visual presentation protecting fragile objects and large specimens while allowing clear sightlines and appropriate lighting integration.
We work to the standards Minnesota's collecting institutions expect.
-
Yes. Our install team manages transport, site coordination, and on-site installation for museum projects across Minnesota (including Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth, Rochester, and regional institutions statewide.)
We coordinate with your facilities and curatorial staff to ensure every element meets institutional safety standards and is installed correctly before we sign off.
