ExhibitsUSA Shares New Step-By-Step Art Installation Video Guide
By Elizabeth Snell
Bringing an exhibition to life is an exciting opportunity to engage your community with extraordinary arts and culture. Whether you’re a curator or arts administrator, hosting a traveling exhibition can enhance your space, spark meaningful conversations, and create unforgettable experiences for your visitors. Strong art installation practices are key to making an exhibition a success.
But where do you start?
To help demystify the installation process, M-AAA’s ExhibitsUSA team has created a complete step-by-step video guide on handling, installing, and managing a traveling exhibition. They demonstrate the tips and tricks of a successful art installation and share their process with an ExhibitsUSA touring exhibition. The guide will help ensure your installation process goes smoothly and reduce the chance of damage to art objects.
Art Handling Essentials
The guide also includes best practices and art handling tips for anyone interested in exhibition installation.
