Cincinnati Museum Center which houses an OMNIMAX theater, natural history
& science museum and an urban history museum is considering extending
museum hours on Saturdays only.  The museums are now open 9 am to 5 pm,
Mon-Sat and 11 am to 6 pm on Sunday.  The theater also has evening shows.
After being open almost 7 years with this schedule, we are now looking at
changing the hours of operation by opening an hour later every day but
also staying open on Saturdays until 6 pm.  Our questions are:

Have other museums recently extended weekend hours by one hour?

If so, do you have statistics on changes in revenue, expenses and
visition?

Thanks for your help.
