ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
Based on my probably not totally accurate recollection, I can think of
several science center exhibits on drugs:
-- The Pacific Science Center, in collaboration with the University of
Washington, designed a small traveling exhibit called Brainpower that focused on
the brain and drugs. The traveling exhibit designed for school outreach
includes about 20 or 25 interactive units, like a rubbing activity that show
raised spider web patterns (what kind of spider web do you get when the spider is
on acid, speed, etc); brain models, etc.
-- OMSI designed a similar exhibit.
-- the Arizona Science Center designed some kind drug education exhibit with
funding from the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDPC) I think.
-- Boston Museum of Science exhibit titled "Changing Your Mind: Drugs in the
Brain"

Damage Drugs Cause", opened April 2 2005
