There were many museums competing for this show, so there was a bit of 'who you know' involved in our getting it. They knew we could accommodate a show of this scale, and South Florida had the audience to support it.

We expected to see Palm Beach, Broward and Dade schools coming to the museum. But we're getting school groups booked from as far away as Wisconsin. That gives a whole new meaning to Spring Break in Fort Lauderdale.

I did not predict the full range of creativity.
