Plank was honoured to help develop From Vimy To Juno—a multi-phased web project that explores the depth of Canada’s culture and identity through the lens of those who fought in and survived both World Wars.

From Vimy to Juno: Coming Soon To A Town Near You

For the first phase of this project, Plank developed a bilingual, responsive website showcasing rare archival imagery and information about the accompanying travelling exhibition.
