Check with betsy alexander at Explora, in Albuquerque.  Their exhibits
philosophy is very much about table top sized, to encourage more intimacy,
more depth.

Also, SciPort, in shreveport, la., developed several groups of tabletop
exhibits, specifically for travel.

We are planning to have the GEMS Math Around the World and Build It!
Festival made into this type of exhibit.  Haven't done it yet, though.  They
