A project of C&G Partners | The Exhibition and Experience Design Studio

What is C&G Partners?
Some Making the Museum listeners and readers have asked me what my company does. Great question! Thanks for asking. C&G Partners is an award-winning exhibition and experience design studio, with clients like the 9/11 Memorial Museum, Cornell University, the Gates Foundation, US Holocaust Museum, NASA, the National Archives, the Smithsonian, and many more.

2025 is our 20th anniversary — but we’re always looking for that next interesting assignment. So if you’re looking for design partners for your next big exhibition or experience project, or just need some good advice, reach out. That conversation is going to sound a lot like an MtM podcast, except don’t worry, we won’t hit the record button.
