 # Active Context
 
 ## Current Task
-Completed: Made yellow donation button visible on mobile header
+Completed: Created new Gallery page with photo grid and modal viewer
 
 ## Recent Changes
-1. Modified Header.tsx to display donation button on mobile:
+1. Created new Gallery component (Gallery.tsx):
+   - Responsive photo grid layout (1-4 columns based on screen size)
+   - Clickable images that enlarge in a modal viewer
+   - Yellow text captions on red background with black border
+   - Smooth animations using Framer Motion
+   - Currently using board member headshots as placeholder images
+   - Modal features: click outside to close, X button, spring animation
+   - Maintains website's color scheme (#6B1631 red, yellow-400 text)
+   - Added to navigation: "About MCDi" dropdown and mobile menu
+   - Route added: /gallery
+
+2. Previous: Modified Header.tsx to display donation button on mobile:
    - Added permanent yellow donation button below hamburger menu on mobile devices
    - Button is always visible in the red header area (no need to open menu)
    - Removed duplicate donation button from inside mobile menu dropdown
@@ -35,11 +46,13 @@ Completed: Made yellow donation button visible on mobile header
    - All previous changes successfully deployed to production
 
 ## Next Steps
-1. Commit and push Header.tsx changes to Git repository
-2. Deploy changes through Portainer (pull and redeploy)
-3. Verify mobile donation button appears correctly on production
-4. Verify desktop layout remains unchanged
-5. Test donation button functionality on mobile devices
+1. Wait for website owner to provide actual gallery photos
+2. Replace placeholder headshots with real gallery photos
+3. Update captions with appropriate descriptions
+4. Commit all changes (Gallery.tsx, App.tsx, Header.tsx) to Git
+5. Deploy changes through Portainer (pull and redeploy)
+6. Test gallery functionality on production (desktop and mobile)
+7. Consider adding video support to gallery in future
 
 ## Solution Summary
 - Problem: Portainer repository deployments require stack.env file in Git repo
