Dear all

A group comprising the museums of the dentists, optometrists, pharmacists and physicians is contemplating organising a touring exhibition with the provisional title of “Trust me I’m a doctor….dentist, optometrist, pharmacist.” As the name implies it would focus on the journey from early unqualified practitioners to today’s qualified professionals.

The exhibition is planned to consist of around 10 graphic panels, including one designed to have local information added to. The initial intention is that the host venue could add their own cases of relevant objects, if wanted.  We are also considering including a supply of posters to be overprinted for each hiring venue, and master copies of information and/or activity sheets to accompany the main panels. We would be grateful if you could take a look at the following questions and let me know your views. Many thanks.

Do you take travelling exhibitions?

How long on average do you take travelling exhibitions for?

What amount do you pay on average for your exhibitions? (please state for how many weeks)

Would an exhibition with a medical theme be of interest?

Would a touring exhibition be of interest if it consisted of panels but no objects?

Would it be of interest if it consisted of panels but no interactives?

Would you want publicity materials? e.g. posters to overprint

Would you want educational resources? e.g. activity sheets for informal family visits, or suggested National Curriculum links
