Benchmark Imaging & Display received a time-sensitive request from Taylor Studios Inc.’s Creative Director, Jason Cox, to produce exhibit graphics for the Bison Center in South Dakota’s Custer State Park. With the state’s lieutenant governor attending the grand opening on May 20th, there was no time to waste! As Taylor Studios’ printing partner, Benchmark went to work immediately on bringing their graphic designs to life while maintaining high-quality standards and meeting their tight deadline.
