Hello all,

Does anyone have experience creating exhibition-related letters of invitation for individuals applying for visas? Or have examples they are able to share?

Thanks very much,

I've received letters from researchers requesting visa invitation letters.  They get forwarded to the curatorial section, though I suspect a letter from the director would carry more weight given my own research visits abroad.  I'll make a few inquiries and see if anyone has a letter that can be used as a template.  Might also want to check with HR.  We are two peas in the same pod!

Hi! We have some examples of visa waiver letters of invitation we've used for traveling exhibits. If you think this would help, you can email us at ewangenheim@fi.edu (Liz is the Assistant Director of Exhibit Ops).
