Put up an exhibit in some reputable and well-travelled museum such as The Smithsonian or The Boston Museum of Science or...
This exhibit would have a large circular stone (granite, marble?) base. It would contain some sort of damping material with more stone or metal on top. Finally, out of reach, but in plain sight of all visitors would be a thick glass bubble with a pendulum made out of thin flexible wire with a tiny weight on the bottom. The wire would be surrounded by some sort of sensing device (either lasers or the much simpler horizontal hoop of wire mere millimeters distance from the vertical wire.
The base would be able to withstand any normal kind of blow without disturbing the sensing mechanism. A seismograph would be attached to rule out earthquake or the shifting of the building. A timestamped video camera would monitor the visitors and an alarm would sound if the two wires made contact or broke a photo-sensing light field. There would also be sensors to monitor if any visitor came too close or touched the glass dome (which would be very difficult).
This might finally put to rest (yeah, RIGHT!) the complaints of those who claim to do telekinesis only sporadically or when conditions are right or whatever. It would only take one visitor out of millions to move it once a fraction of an inch to prove TK a reality.
