In 2024, the Folger Shakespeare Library unveiled their significant renovation, providing the world’s largest Shakespeare collection with a home to match its undeniable prestige.
Inside a state-of-the-art visible vault, 82 of the First Folios of Shakespeare are carefully presented. These Folios are on display to the public for the very first time, previously only accessible to select scholars; this allows visitors an unparalleled opportunity to explore Shakespeare’s works in much greater depth than ever before.
Working alongside Kubik Maltbie, Becker & Frondorf, Studio Joseph and Tillotson Design Associates, Click Netherfield is proud to have designed, manufactured and installed showcases for such a legendary exhibition.
Published in 1623, Shakespeare’s First Folio preserved nearly half of his plays that had never been printed before such as Macbeth, The Tempest and Julius Caesar. Without it, 18 of his iconic works might have been lost forever.
