I suggest "TALES IN TALL TREES" from the Staten Island Children's Museum,
especially for elementary age kids.  The contact is Marco Hernandez.

We averaged 400 visitors daily and got a great response from visiting camp
groups and parents.

We installed this exhibit this summer.  The exhibit has interactive "trees"
which teach various aspects of storytelling.    We installed the exhibit in
about 1700 sq.ft., but we spread it out and added a bookshelf and reading
area.

We did a creative installation and added some of our own special features,
which were inexpensive and made it very worthwhile.  I'd be happy to share
our experiences off-line if you decide to take the exhibit.

Subject: Small, interactive children's exhibits


Carnegie Hall Museum in Lewisburg, West Virginia is a small (1000 sq.ft)
space.  We rely on traveling exhibits for most of our programming.

We are looking for interactive children's exhibits that are appropriate for
elementary and junior high age groups, and that can work in our relatively
small space.

I would appreciate any leads . . .
