  • 1.  Traveling Exhibitions

    Posted 05-24-2023 09:26 AM
    Hi all,

    I am in search of policies and procedures used for Traveling Exhibitions -- from creating to shipping -- including the roles various departments play.  

    I'm working with an institution that has only recently started a program to travel exhibitions and issues have come up slightly differently than one-off shows (i.e. division of labor, storage of exhibitions that do not have a "next" venue, etc.).

    Any information/documents/links that you are able to share will be greatly appreciated.  Feel free to contact me off-list if you prefer.


    Thank you in advance,

    Juliette

    Look at SITES, I'm sure they have policies and procedures in place.

    Juliette, I am also looking for a checklist of sorts. At the Speed we are used to taking on loan exhibitions so the process isn't unfamiliar, I just don't want to forget anything as we are looking to reverse the process and travel our own content. I'll be glad to chat about anything you find!
