We are thinking about developing an evening science lecture series here at the Connecticut Science Center.  We have done a few what I would call "one-off" events but we have no formal program. This is what I wish to create.  I have lots of questions...usually do.  Anyway, I would love to talk with others who have created such a program and/or those who are currently running an evening lecture series at their science center/museum.   I have question such as:


*         How do you acquire your speakers?

*         Do you and/or how do you review your speakers to ensure they are appropriate?

*         What topics work best?

*         Do you provide refreshments, alcohol perhaps?

*         How well attended are they?

*         Do you do web casts as presentations?

*         What format works well; traditional lecture, forum, panel discussion, etc?

*         What ages do you target?

Feel free to contact me off the list and thanks.
