I had worked on the initial version of the 'Once Upon a Time'. A long story - they had counted on a number of loan objects, which then either did not arrive or were less than enough to fill the exhibit. They contacted me with about 2 weeks (!!) to go before the grand opening - with hardly anything to include. I put together most of the original hands on components, and a good number of the smaller 'daily life' pieces you may see. I also pulled together a staff training package (which may or may not still come in the exhibit package). Our artisan friends also contributed, I think Kes Smith also has a good number of her pewter tokens still on display.
Bad news is that I have been pretty much isolated from the exhibit since. I had hoped that my name might be retained against staff training and other support as the show traveled (which it has extensively in Ontario since).
