Roto excels at the planning and execution of first-hand learning experiences, particularly those created in conjunction with new facility construction.  Roto planning assistance is anchored in the executive museum leadership experience of its Principals, and through the central role Roto has played in the planning and execution of no fewer than 16 new and renovated museums in the U.S., China and the Middle East.  Our planning approach is comprehensive and strategic, building community consensus around clearly-articulated goals, vibrant experiential concepts, and sustainable funding and operating models. 

Roto planning services include architectural programming and assessment, exhibit/attraction concept development, cost and feasibility analysis, marketing development, fundraising support and other key functions which enable emerging museums to take the next logical step, and existing institutions to renew and refresh their experiences.
