Museum exhibit design is more than 'making it pretty', the purpose of museum
exhibits is generally to educate, or move in some way. You have to determine
for yourself if you are interested in purely design -- you mentioned themed
entertainment vistas, which suggests to me you are -- or are you interested
in education through design.

Good Luck,
