Hi Jason,
I am very interested in assisting with your center's development. I was the project and interpretation coordinator for my organizations new interpretive center's exhibits and building in 2008-2009. This project resulted in a 10,000sq foot space that houses two interactive exhibit halls. I have been the managing the exhibits and building operation since it’s opening in June 2009. I realize that we are not a traditional Science Center but I strived to incorporate science and technology into our exhibits as it pertains to biology, geology and environmental sciences.
I can't help you with planetariums but I may be able to give some insight on exhibit design and facility management.
Let me know if I can be of any help.
Sincerely,
Rachel

We are taking the very first steps at establishing a new Science Center here in Charleston, South Carolina, the first steps on a long and perilous road. Instead of reinventing the wheel, it makes more sense to leverage the wisdom of the community that has already established successful science museums and centers around the country. I do not wish to flood the mailing list with questions during these initial stages, however.
Please consider acting as an advisory mentor to our efforts if you have the interest and the time. Your experience and knowledge would be invaluable in avoiding the pitfalls and ensuring success. Any amount of input you are able to provide, even slight, would be appreciated.
Thanks for your consideration,
Jason Trinklein
Charleston Science Center
