ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
From Michelle:
3 main questions:
>-Do you offer demo/activity/make-n-take museum floor experiences while
school groups are in your building?
We have demonstrations and theater pieces scheduled Wednesday - Sunday.
Each gallery also has volunteer and staff interpreters. Some are more
structured activities, e.g., looking at aquatic invertebrates through a
microscope, playing some math games or doing chromatography (a make and
take- the only one I can think of).
>-Do you charge admission to the museum for school groups?
Yes
>-Who mainly does the activities - staff, volunteers, interns?
Mostly volunteers. Staff often develop the activities.
