...who decides what an exhibit is about?

Published: June 24, 2020, 7 a.m.

For the first few episodes of this podcast, we'll take you behind the scenes of the California Science Center to meet some of the people who design and develop exhibits.

Here at the Science Center, you can find both permanent and temporary exhibits about all kinds of topics. Dogs. King Tut. Space exploration. Or even the emotion of fear. Do you ever wonder who gets to decide what these exhibits are about?

In this episode, we talk to David Bibas, the curator for technology programs at the California Science Center. Curators like David imagine up new exhibits, help decide what they should be about, and shape what kinds of experiences you as a guest will have in them.
