Just the Facts!

"I never thought any exhibition would draw better than our Dinosaur exhibition, but GROSSOLOGY just smashed our exhibition attendance record. Nearly 400,000 people experienced GROSSOLOGY, over 100,000 more visitors than our best exhibition ever!"

Nancy Stueber
President, Oregon Museum of Science & Industry

"Its official, GROSSOLOGY was the most successful exhibition ever hosted by OMSI 56% higher attendance than projected, 36% above the best performer with groups and 75% more membership sign-ups than during the same period last year."

Carole Lee
Vice President of Marketing, Oregon Museum of Science & Industry

"GROSSOLOGY was a marketer's dream! We had a true blockbuster exhibition on our hands with an overwhelming response from the media, public, our members. Our attendance exceeded projections by 182% and revenues by 266%."

Gretchen Jaspering
Vice President of Marketing, St. Louis Science Center

"GROSSOLOGY successfully bridges the gap museums and science centers continually confront, joining education and entertainment. Our attendance was 39% higher compared to the same period last year, and school group visitation was higher than any other exhibition."

Bryan Tisdall
CEO & President, Science World British Columbia

"Compared to last year's Grand Opening and even with major road construction surrounding the museum all summer, GROSSOLOGY still increased our attendance by 14%. We were even busy during Minnesota's State Fair, and that's when we're usually slow. The media also loved covering the exhibition."

Anne Hornickel
Head of Museum Programs, Science Museum of Minnesota

"We're ecstatic! Attendance is up 150% since we opened (October 2001) and we still have two weeks left in the month. And that's fantastic, considering downtown traffic has dropped since the recent tragic events of September 11th."
