I suggest the first chapter in Museum Exhibition: Theory and Practice in David Dean's book. Dawn Scher Thomae Milwaukee Public Museum From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Robin Gabriel Sent: Monday, September 12, 2011 8:35 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: exhibition development outline An outside organization has approached me to do an exhibit at my museum; we have agreed to do it, but since the employees of the outside organization will be doing the lion share of the work (and they have never done an exhibit before), I need to give them a clear outline of the steps and stages of creating an exhibition. Before I reinvent the wheel, does anyone have a suitable outline that will summarize the various stages of exhibit development?
