Subject: collaborating with nature centers


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

We are developing a nature exhibit for young children and their families.  As part of this project, we will collaborate with regional nature centers to encourage families to explore the outdoors as well as our exhibit. 

Have any of you had any experience with such a collaboration?  We are interested in all facets of the collaboration between the museum and nature centers. For instance, what kind of commitment would be expected from the nature center?  How might the nature centers be promoted in the exhibit?  How might nature center information in the exhibit stay current? 

Thank you!
Marcie
