==================================================================

    Our Museum is currently developing a traveling exhibition on
    vision that will be targeted at children, ages 11 and up.  We are
    in the beginning stages of exhibition development and thought
    it would be a good idea to get some feedback from the museum
    discussion group before we proceed any further.   Any comments you
    may would be greatly appreciated!

    Our questions are as follows:

    1. Have you heard of a similar exhibition? (See description
    below).  If so, what was the location of the exhibition?

    2. Do you know of any resources/contacts that would help us in
    researching/developing this exhibition?

    DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED EXHIBITION ON VISION:


    The exhibition will examine vision in animals and humans and
    will focus on the following two aspects: (1) the comparison
    of human vision to that of other species, i.e., how do the visual
    systems of bees, hawks, etc., operate in comparison with the
    human visual system? and, (2) examining how the visual
    systems of different species enhance their ability to survive in
    their environment.

    I would appreciate it if you could reply to me directly at my
    e-mail address.  Thanks so much--our team will appreciate any
    comments!
