ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
“ADULTS ONLY”…..
Is your science center or museum experimenting with programs and events for
adults? If so, please contact me ([log in to unmask]) because ASTC is
writing a book about ways its members are attracting and engaging adults in
general, and older adults in particular.
So far, I've learned about these popular programs for adults:
-!Explora! in Albuquerque, NM, hosts themed events once a month; these include
live music;
-on Fridays, the Museum of Science Boston is open until 9pm; visitors can
enjoy a drink in the Science Street Café before an Omni show; MOS “forums”
also have adults in mind, focusing on current science and inviting discussion;
-OMSI in Portland, OR, hosts the “Science Pub” in “Oregon's oldest craft
brewery” the last Monday of every month (no RSVP is required and minors are
welcome until 10pm).
So what are you doing? Please forward this query to someone in your science
center or museum who can tell me more.
Thanks,
Sally Middlebrooks for ASTC
