ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************

COSI is considering booking a blockbuster exhibit over the summer and
retaining it into September.  Normally, we close for three weeks in
September because attendance is practically non-existent and we get a
lot of big maintenance and cleaning jobs done that are hard to
accomplish when we are open.  However, we now have the opportunity to
hold a blockbuster exhibit over the extra month.  We are wondering if
any other museums have experience with this.  Does the great attendance
continue or even go up because it is the last chance to see the
blockbuster?  Or does attendance follow the normal trend of dropping
significantly in September?  Any help and suggestions appreciated.
