The Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum opened two new exhibits during the winter of 2019, including Thomas D. Mangelsen – A Life in the Wild and Treehouses. To raise awareness to the exhibits to the community, PCI supported and evaluated how to strategically target storytelling to prioritize and maximize media coverage.
