Revolutionary Characters

I created this project when I was employed at Boston’s historic Old State House Museum. To encourage personal connections between modern visitors and historic characters, I created persona cards that were given to each visitor at random, assigning them a real historical person to connect with as they learned about the large events.

Card Design

I decided what content the cards would hold and designed their look. We created cards for more than 100 characters.

Storytelling App

I designed a chose-your-own-adventure app that allowed players to chose a character and follow their story.

Illustration

I drew character illustrations for about 40 of the 100 characters (including these pictured.)

Website

I designed a website that allowed users to explore the content of character cards other than the one they were assigned. revolutionarycharacters.org
