Congrats to History Associates Incorporated on their 40th anniversary! HAI partnered with Pass It Down to develop a digital exhibit showing 40 years of client engagement and project achievements. Featuring more than 40 stories and case studies, the exhibit uses Pass It Down’s powerful and intuitive digital design platform to create a dynamic, interactive display. The exhibit offers a glimpse into the many ways that HAI has served and collaborated with a diverse range of clients in the company’s first 40 years. Users can click on story tiles to learn how the HAI team has researched and disclosed corporate ties to slavery; conducted in-depth environmental investigations; created, assessed, and organized archives for clients like the National Park Service and Logitech; and developed engaging digital and in-person exhibit content for the National World War II Museum, Bausch + Lomb, and others.
