The George Peabody Library
The Sheridan Libraries at The Johns Hopkins University announce the opening of Eureka!: Rare Books in the History of Scientific Discovery at the George Peabody Library in Baltimore. Spanning more than 2,500 years of scientific breakthroughs and including books that date from the late 15th century to the mid 20th century, Eureka! contains highlights from the Dr. Elliott and Eileen Hinkes Collection of Rare Books in the History of Science.
The collection, totaling more than 300 items, provides a kind of roadmap of seminal moments in the history of science and was assembled over two decades by Dr. Elliott Hinkes, an alumnus of the Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences and the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Hinkes, who died in 2009, maintained a private practice specializing in medical oncology and hematology in the Los Angeles area for more than 30 years and was an associate clinical professor at UCLA.
JSI – Jericho Stage, Inc. brings a level of expertise and a working relationship with presenters that is hard to find with production companies. We went the extra mile to ensure that not only the client is happy, but that the presenters at the exhibition were well attended to.

BCC Fashion Show Stage with custom painted logo
The Baltimore Country Club – BCC a 112 year old, private club, holds its annual BCC Fashion Show during the holiday season at its premier clubhouse in Roland Park. This year the production staff at BCC decided that the annual fashion show deserved a fresh new look. So given this mandate by one of our oldest clients, JSI took the challenge.
A projection screen provides a unique look to BCC Fashion Show
This fashion show required JSI to provide custom panels or scene flats bearing the BCC logo. The high style replicated logo requested by BCC gave that final touch to the WOW factor that the country club wanted. The addition of a back lit translucent rear wall was added for dramatic effect. These photos are an example of how JSI can provide customized production services to your high fashion event.
