Hi all,

I run an afterschool program for teens out of Yale's Peabody Museum 
of Natural History and my students are embarking on producing an 
exhibit focused on the geosciences employing a cave motif.  Though I 
welcome any suggestions/advice, I was hoping to get help with the following:
- A cheapish fabric that could be draped on the ceiling and/or walls 
that could be made to look like rock;
- Other cost-effective rock solutions (we've considered carving foam);
- A source for cheap, large-ish (1'-6' diameter), round, rigid (i.e. 
planet-like) structures that could be cut and mounted;

If any of you had any of the above hanging around, available to loan, 
I'd be interested.

Thank you!

Jamie
