Subject: Interactive natural history exhibitions
Hi all
We are currently developing the brief for a natural history exhibition
about big cats in 2004, aimed at families and school pupils aged 7-12.
We would be interested in any examples of the following:
reports of ( successful or otherwise) consultation processes with these
audiences, for any type of exhibition
summative evaluations of any natural history exhibitions aimed at these
audiences
evidence of the types of interactives which work well with these
audiences
anything else which might seem relevant
suggestions for exhibitions to visit
any wise words or warnings
Many thanks, and best wishes
Elspeth
