I took my six year old son on saturday, with some friends, and they
thoroughly enjoyed themselves.  These exhibitions are expensive to mount and
have to be run as going commercial concerns as traditional museum people do
not see them as worthy enough in their own right.  Local Authorities have
enough problems keeping their existing collections going without being able
to 'sub' these events.
