Hi Jane,
What are you trying to show, and what are you trying to avoid by not
using water? If you want a dynamic display, but you're trying to keep
things from getting wet, maybe you could try smoke. If you want a
static display, using epoxy or something like what was mentioned earlier
might be your best bet.

Subject: water-less exhibits about water?

Our museum is developing an exhibit related to our neighboring river and
we are looking for ways to represent the river in a hands-on way without
using water. Has anyone ever seen an exhibit that uses another material
to effectively take the place of water in showing a flow pattern?
Thanks! Jane ________________________________________
