Abstract
The overall objective was to provide the Museum with guidance on how to develop themes and interpretive approaches for a series of exhibitions about the Pacific region. More specifically we wanted to:
* understand audience interest, prior knowledge, attitudes and feelings associated with the Pacific
* identify themes that are of most interest
* identify interpretive approaches
Practical outcomes were to:
* gain an understanding of base contextual information that needs to be provided for visitors
* gain an understanding of interests and issues that the Museum could address in a series of Pacific exhibitions
* gauge interest in specific objects in the Pacific collections
* finalise themes that could be further developed
