Inside <br />Council Upgrades A/V Equipment <br />Development Updates <br />Fall Activities and Events <br />Guidelines for Leaf Removal <br />Made in Arden Hills Features Split Rock Studios <br />Split Rock Studios <br />2071 Gateway Blvd <br />Arden Hills, MN 55112 <br />Located at the I-35W and I-694 <br />interchange, Split Rock Studios <br />is an exhibit design/build firm <br />that designs and produces <br />interpretive exhibits for nature <br />centers, museums, visitor centers, <br />universities and national parks. <br />Staff work with organizations from <br />across the country to bring their <br />educational message to visitors in <br />engaging, memorable and hands- <br />on ways. At any given time, they <br />design and build exhibits for about <br />30 different projects, ranging from <br />$25,000 to $2.5 million. <br />Three things to know <br />1. Split Rock employs staff with <br />diverse backgrounds and skill sets. <br />The design department includes <br />researchers, writers, 3D designers <br />and graphic designers. They have <br />project managers, estimators and <br />CAD detailers. They employ <br />exceptional <br />cabinetmakers, <br />welders, muralists <br />and sculptors in <br />their shops and <br />draw talent from <br />throughout the <br />metro area. <br />2. Split Rock is <br />employee owned. <br />When its two <br />founders were ready <br />to retire in 2017, <br />they sold the company to the <br />employees. Split Rock retained <br />the same staff, leadership and <br />vision, despite the transition in <br />ownership. Today, being employee <br />owned means that everyone in the <br />building is equally invested in the <br />company’s success and reputation. <br />3. Split Rock has been honored <br />to work on a number of recent <br />Minnesota projects. Staff designed <br />and built new exhibits for the <br />International Wolf Center in Ely, <br />which is now open to the public. <br />The design team is working with <br />the Washington County Historical <br />Society to design and develop <br />exhibits for their new building, <br />slated to open in June <br />2020. They were thrilled to work <br />with the St. Paul Saints this year on <br />a new museum at their stadium. <br />When Split Rock started, the <br />company had just 13 employees. <br />Today, 55 skilled museum <br />employees design and build <br />exhibits that are installed across the <br />country.
