But who are these audiences and what kinds of experiences are they looking for? A recent Reach Advisors -ASTC survey identified mothers of young children as one of the largest science center audiences, and men over 60 as one of the most committed. How can we keep core users like these happy and engaged? Join us for an online discussion on this topic with guest moderator Susie Wilkening from Reach Advisors. Articles from the issue are posted in the forum area now. Discussion will run from Monday, Feb. 16 through Friday, Feb. 20, 2009. Log in to ASTC Connect at http://connect.astc.org/ and click into the Core Audiences Forum in the ASTC Dimensions Discussion forum. If you don't already have an account, set one up - it's free and automatic. First-time attendees will need to enter a one-time enrollment key: "in-depth". ASTC Connect discussions are asynchronous exchanges that run through your email. Feel free to contact me at [log in to unmask] for help. And invite any colleagues who may be interested.
