    Art--

    We may be able to help, depending on what you are looking for.  We help to make sure that strategy and vision align with operations, facilities and budgets before beginning architectural or exhibit design. We call that Strategic Master Planning.

    I'd be happy to tap about your project. Give a call anytime.

    This is going to prove to be a very powerful list, let me suggest Matt Kirchman of Object-Idea, mkirchman@objectIDEA.com who has completed many major and medium sized institutional planning programs.

    Good luck, this is very exciting to be initiating a planning process!

    Hello Art,

    The Science Museum of Minnesota would be excited to help you with this project! We offer a complete menu of services to other non-profit organizations that need help planning, developing, designing, and building exhibits. Unlike other design/build firms, SMM is a museum as well as a provider of exhibit services. We face the same issues our partners do as we create experiences that educate, entertain, and engage visitors. Our success stems from our  commitment to collaboration and our focus on visitors as our ultimate clients.  Let us know if we can be of assistance!
