This year, the event is sponsored by Science North, the Museum of Science and Industry, Imagine Exhibitions, Minotaur Mazes, SC Exhibitions, the National Guitar Museum, Museums Partner, GES Events, and Flying Fish Exhibits (the event is so popular, they had to turn down potential sponsors!) There will be presentation by approximately 30 to 40 organizations that produce and market traveling exhibits and those who are in the market for quality exhibits to engage their visitors. The introduction to the forum will be a five-minute assessment of the museum market today by Betsy Loring, Antonio Rodriquez, Jeff Wyatt and Mark Erwin.
