Andrew,

I am very interested in these pieces and am in your "neck of the woods" so
to speak. We have been exploring exhibits that use wind as a precursor to an
outdoor exhibit down the line. Please have someone on your staff contact me.

Thanks!

Subject: 2 Exhibit elements - Looking for a good home

ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related
institutions.

We are hoping to donate these exhibit elements.  They are appropriate for
children of late toddler age, up through children of any age.

Wind instruments:  This is a round ~12' tall wood/plexi structure with hand
and foot pumps, slidewhistles and even a seesaw, all of which drive various
organ pipes.  It is both very popular with the children and quite loud, but
a good cacophany.

Windmill hill:  An ~8' x 4' kidney shaped table with small peg holes, and a
fan box.  The idea is the children create little windmills out of plastic
parts and create a little wind farm looking structure.

Zeum is located in SF, so we will have to find a way for you to pick them up
or have them shipped.

Disclaimer:  I am on vacation now so do not have direct access to pictures
of these items.  If you are at all interested just email me and I will
forward the necessary information to my fellow Zeum people.

Andrew
