Andy and Peg Granitto are retired from the Yakima Valley Museum, where they developed, designed, fabricated and installed exhibitions.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n

Andy has over 30 years experience in exhibition development, design, and production \u2014 following 10 years in carpentry, cabinet-making, and renovation contracting.

Happy Hen, LLC is our freelance exhibition design and consultation service.
While we had intended to do lots of freelance work after leaving YVM, we found that working on the ranch and feathering our nest in the barn is more enjoyable and fulfilling. But we do provide exhibit services.
We specialize in artifact mounts, models and dioramas, replicas, gallery installations, interpretive graphics and labels, and general consultation. (See images below.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contact Andy at andyhappyhen@gmail.com<\/strong> with inquiries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
