You may have already been send this, but a good resource for writing exhibit RFPs is in the Spring 2007 issue of the Exhibitionist. The articles are on the web.

Hi Michael,
If you're still looking for information or have
questions feel free to write or call me next week (I'm on vacation this
week). I write RFPs often and just completed a national search for
exhibit designers on behalf of a client.

I am inquiring whether there is a temple RFP that
museums use when
looking to receive bids for exhibitions. Our
organization is looking to introduce
a new way of developing
exhibitions and from my research and the responses
I received on a
post a month or so ago, an RFP is the industry standard
for
receiving bids from exhibition design firms.
Thank you for any
feedback you may have.
Sincerely,

Subject: Fashion Photography at the Fashion Museum in Bath, England
The Fashion Museum in Bath has a competition to go along with their
fashion photography exhibit. Entries closed on Friday (I only found
out about it a couple of days before that). I thought it was
interesting for a museum to have a competition that anyone could
enter, and particularly to show off skills and creativity. I wish it
had been publicized more!

While I don't think the number of views count toward anything, it is
fun to watch the numbers so of course I sent the direct link for my
own entry. ;-) But please do take a look around — I was
particularly impressed by some of the younger people's photos.
There is also an option to leave comments. They are moderated and
take a while to show up, and you have to check the "agree to terms"
box. Please feel free to share the link so more people will view the
photos.
Thank you!
-Carol
