The captivating year-long social media, website, and exhibit program designed for the Leo Baeck Institute, 1938 PROJEKT, received local and international media coverage in Communication Arts, Dexigner, Campaign US, The Drum, Designbote, Lisbon Art Center & Studios, and Art for Life among others. The project commemorates the 80th anniversary of the terrifying events of Kristallnacht in Nazi Germany by featuring archival documents that tell the story of how German-speaking Jews perceived the year leading to the fateful event that many see as the beginning of the Holocast. Falling on April 11/12 this year, Holocast Remembrance Day brings special significance to the project.

For the 80th anniversary of the terrifying events of Kristallnacht in Nazi Germany, C&G Partners worked with the Leo Baeck Institute to develop "1938 PROJEKT: Posts from the Past". The year-long social media, web and exhibit program presents 365 daily posts of archival documents from the year 1938. In transposed real time, they tell the story of how Jewish citizens perceived that increasingly fateful year. C&G Partners developed the project’s visual identity and crafted social, web and physical experiences.

C&G Partners continues their work with the iconic St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City as they near the completion of a once-in-a-century restoration and conservation project. To honor the generosity of their many patrons, the Cathedral commissioned C&G to design a system of donor signage. The program uses classical letterforms hand carved into stone and wood surfaces.

The Stolen Heart Video Map has been honored with a 2018 DIGI Award in the Best Content: Ambient Category. The 3D projection-mapped video table was the centerpiece of an exhibition at the Leo Baeck Institute that illustrated Jewish expropriation during the Third Reich.

The DIGI Awards are one of the only industry award programs that recognize the "outstanding integrators, content providers, and product manufacturers focusing on digital signage and DOOH (Digital Out of Home) markets."

C&G Partners exhibit design and digital installation for the San Diego History Center's Junípero Serra Welcome Center was covered by Kate Heller in the SEGD (Society for Experiential Graphic Design) article The River Runs Through it. "Placing the river as the protagonist in the story became especially fitting because you can see the river and most of the watershed from the site,” says Keith Helmetag about the design concept. “It’s an interesting way to tell what might seem like divergent and, in some cases, controversial stories together with one outlook.” Read more at SEGD.
