Dear Ellen Giusti
(Exhibition Evaluator; American Museum of Natural History NY; Exhibition
Department)

It is a great program I wish I could attend and learn mor about it:

        AN EXHIBIT EVALUATION WORKSHOP
        Techniques That Make Exhibits Work Better

but I do not have the time to participate and wish all the success.

But -there is always a nice but (I am a professional BUTTERER):

I visited the AMofNat. History in NY last September. I wonder, if all those
nice techniques of evaluating exhibits are applied in those museum halls.
Or, could it be that the public asked doesnt know the alternatives? Could it
be that the visitors are content just because they havent seen better
displays and just dioramas and rooms filled (stuffed) with objects? Did you
present them with alternatives and they really have chosen that what I saw?

We all want to improve - and we have to.

Greetings,
Peter, the Rebernik
