Mr. Goldowsky,

We are very (and tentatively) interested in this project.  Everything
depends, of course, on appropriateness of subject and spaces considerations.
I would be happy to work on this project with your institution.

>
> Are you in charge of exhibits for a small museum, nature center or zoo?
>
> The New England Aquarium is looking for potential partners for two major
>
> grants we are writing.
>
> For both grants we are looking for smaller institutions, ones that have
> not frequently  (or ever) rented traveling exhibits.  Institutions must
> be non-profit, and ideally reach audiences not served by larger
> institutions.  Partner institutions will be involved in exhibit planning
>
> and will receive traveling exhibits, with the costs largely underwritten
>
> by the grants.
>
> The first grant will produce a traveling exhibit about the Aquarius
> Undersea Habitat an under water research station run by NOAA.  The main
> part of the exhibit would be a recreation of the habitat, built on a
> flatbed trailer.  Since it would be a mobile, self-contained, outdoor
> exhibit, we hope to tour institutions that do not have space for large
> indoor special exhibits.
>
> The second grant would underwrite a series of small traveling exhibits
> produced in collaboration with Gulf of Maine institutions interested in
> aquatic ecological issues.  Partner institutions would meet to decide
> exhibit priorities and logistical issues.  Exhibits would range from
> table-top size up to about 200 square feet.
