Exhibit Development, Design and Installation www.momentsintimeexhibits.com
Moments In Time Exhibits located in Eugene, Oregon specializing in the design and creation of scale miniature dioramas for museums, historic sites, visitor's centers and individual collectors. Our highly detailed scale model scenes illustrate specific stories and promote viewer understanding of rich, complex events and/or interactions. We are accomplished researchers committed to historic accuracy. We will include the right cast of characters, an appropriate population of dynamic and well-costumed scale figures positioned to help tell your story. Contact Tom Snyder at Moments In Time Exhibits to discuss your story
Moments In Time Exhibits is a 3-person family studio which has been actively involved in the design and creation of historically precise, theatrically dynamic, highly detailed dioramas since 1991.
Joanne Snyder is our talented miniature assembler/fabricator who started creating miniatures as a hobby in 1985 and is an active member of the Eugene Miniature Club today. A bonified ‘green-thumb’ in the full-scale world, she is an inspired botanical replicator who paints life into our plants, costumes and attitude into our little people, and wear and tear into our modeled world. Joanne applies a superb sense of color in her paint work. She is a lifelong history enthusiast and a first rate researcher. Her experience teaching elementary school (BA in Education) for several years gives her good insight in how to successfully explain historical events and times to children.
Martha Snyder is our "Mother Nature" - the sculptor of mountains, canyons, streams, rivers, big water, trees, stumps, rats, birds, and people. She brings her fine arts credentials (BA of Fine Arts/Sculpture and Design) and experience as a practicing sculptor to bear in each exhibit, in addition to her own excellent sense of color, and of landscape. She too is a first rate researcher. As the exhibit coordinator for a local (Eugene) gallery for over ten years, she has combined her talents as a sculptor with her interest in tactile (touchable) art and graphics for the blind and visually impaired as an aid to their participation in museum dynamics.
Tom Snyder is our designer (BA in Industrial Design). He is also our primary salesman, project coordinator, engineer, and carpenter. Tom is a great scratch builder and a master of the ‘one-off’, his skills honed in 30 years of slot car building and racing. He is a detail fanatic with a sense of how scale physics works in our scenes. Also a good researcher, Tom brings a sharp eye for continuity to our historical sleuthing. His imagination inspires much of the interconnecting detail included in the stories that we develop and present.
