Sullivan Brothers Iowa Veterans Museum

On Thursday, October 23, the Grout Museum District of Waterloo, IA, held a Dress Rehearsal for the upcoming Grand Opening of the Sullivan Brothers Iowa Veterans Museum.

Throughout 2007, Applied Art worked closely with the museum's designer and fabricator, Split Rock Studios of St. Paul, MN, to plan the video theaters, computer interactives and other unique presentations within the museum. Production began in January of 2008, culminating with this unveiling of:

• 35 historic videos and veteran interviews
• 78 audio-supported homefront and warfront stories
• 7 Interactive "Dog Tag" stations
• 2 Iowa Veteran Search Stations
• An ever-scrolling memorial tribute to all Iowa Veterans
• A laser-based presentation chronicling World War II

The museum Grand Opening is scheduled for Saturday, November 15 and begins with a parade at 10 am. The public is invited to attend the Grand Opening for a $1 admission price.
