About our work at the Old Montreal Distillery:
Joanna is not a vendor; she is part of the team, the best partner in crime. She is a very talented artist - a guru - on our journey from vision to reality.
She absorbed our history, both the exciting and the mundane, our multi-cultural team, the intersection of factory life with the artistry and craftsmanship of distilling, and translated our story into a cohesive experience.
Old Montreal Distillery is a phased project spanning years. Joanna’s holistic view integrated the concepts and description for the distillery tours, the visitor center and the signage into a seamless visage of who OMD is and how we want our visitors and community to see us. Of course, the visitor center welcome video is a HOME RUN, brilliant piece of work!

About our exhibit at the International Museum of the Horse:
Jonathan, Paul and I are extremely pleased that our donation to update the Arabian Racing section of the Arabian Horse Galleries Museum has turned out beyond our expectations. This vibrant immersive vision of the performance bred race Arabian is a testament to your talent and creativity, along with your connections, Joanna Hay and her talented team, who helped bring this together.
We look forward to seeing it when we head back to Michigan for the summer.

Words about the exhibit we produced around Betty Barr and Don Kleier’s Kentucky Fishing Reel Collection at the Capital City Museum:
The creative team at Joanna Hay Productions really knocked it out of the park on the Crafting and Casting exhibit. It gives our visitors a remarkable experience they won't soon forget.

Interim Executive Director, Capital City Museum
Praise for "At What Cost?" written and produced by Joanna Hay Productions and Videobred, Inc.:
This film gives our lawyers a tool to reach our clients about these issues in a way that no other law firm is doing. A film like this would have been valuable to me as a General Counsel because it depicts realistic situations where executives need to make difficult decisions.

About one of our sound art installations:
We are proud to announce funding for Joanna Hay’s project, “Sound Capitol,” a sound art installation composed of oral history clips, instrumental music, and environmental sounds to tell the story of women organizers in Dr. King’s 1964 March on Frankfort. This public art installation will have an impact on families, legislators, and tourists and will increase the feminist impact of her sound art practice. The focus of this grant program is on vital issues that separate communities and leave women without a voice. Their projects will build community as these artists grow their expertise and create new paths to social change. This work will lead us to a more equitable, just Kentucky.
Sharon LaRue,
Executive Director of the Kentucky Foundation for Women
