Good Morning Sue, Thank you for your prompt reply and mentioning the excellent resources on exhibition development at The Tech's website. I often recommend museum folks to emulate them as "outstanding examples." It is obvious that I need to clarify my request, so here it goes......I am interested in seeing an Exhibition Master Plan (EMP) that provides a strategic direction for multi-million dollar, major exhibitions that are defined as capital improvement projects (CIP). Such exhibitions usually have a useful life span of about 15 to 20 years. Prior to developing and designing such major exhibitions, there is usually a EMP produced to identify: over-arching mission related exhibition themes; interior space allocations; budget ceilings; projected attendance, annual revenues and expenditures associated over the life-span of the exhibitions; strategic opportunities and constraints associated with such a CIP; architectural, life and safety, and ADA issues,... etc...etc.. In essence the EMP should provide the museum's governing authority with a "executive overview" for the basis for planning the museum's CIP exhibition activities for the next decade or two. Ideally, the EMP should be done in tandem with the museum's Strategic Plan. If anyone is aware of such EMP documents on the internet, I would greatly appreciate knowing about them. Thanks, Wesley S.
