Caption: Exhibit on Display in the Attic
Additional Description: John Muir Exhibit
Originally created for the
Kern Kaweah Chapter
Mineral King Group
of the
Sierra Club Produced in 1993 to create interest in John Muir and the recently established John Muir Day, this exhibit was exhibited in California for many years by dedicated Sierra Club volunteers. The design of the exhibit is meant to reflect the times when Muir was alive, and built as Muir himself might have built it. John Muir was an inventor, and lived at a time before mass production, plastics, and chrome were everywhere in our lives. Corrugated cardboard was used as an alternative. Corrugated, largely made of recycled materials, is lightweight and gives a "natural" look and feel to the exhibit.
