Chis Dill wrote asking about airport advertising:
Any regular advertising we do at either Midway or O'Hare airport on
billboards and the like are paid for, as is the bulk of our advertising.
We (and the other Chicago museums) are allowed to post banners on the
light poles outside the airports sponsored by the Chicago Department of
Aviation. The aviation department also sponsored another neat
opportunity. The three Grant Park/Museum Campus museums (Field Museum,
Adler Planetarium and Shedd) are adopting the CTA public transit station
at O'Hare Airport. Other avenues that have gotten us visibility out
there are our relationship with United Airlines and participating with
others (such as the Museums in the park group or the Chicago Children's
Museum) that are putting up displays.
