ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
I work at a medium sized science center and am preparing a case study
for a demonstration theater. We would be using it to do science
demonstration shows that would last between 20 to 40 minutes. Currently,
we do these shows out in the middle of our center. We would love to
have a space where we could control noise, crowds, etc. I am
interested in how other centers use their demo theaters. What type of
programming do you use? What is your attendance like? Do you charge an
additional fee? If you do charge, what is the yearly revenue? Do you
reschedule groups or is it all walk-in? What is the square footage?
What are some lessons learned or best practices you could share with me?
You are welcome to reply to the list or to me individually. Thanks for
the help!
