Description: Science Centres continually seek to increase the size of their audiences—to serve as many of the public as possible. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly necessary to allow those who use Science Centres to help support the costs of their services. Their fees are part of "earned income" and earned income is key to sustaining the quality of existing exhibits, programs and demonstrations. And it is also key to trying new ideas. The annual cycle of marketing activity and expenditures keeps both of these goals in mind. However, in India the former goal gets priority as Science Centres are largely funded by the government except in case of Science City, Kolkata which is built and run as a self-sustainability model.
