We have had several requests to share this exhibition management

THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

The Technical Assistance Program (TAP) makes available to institutions
or individuals an array of professional services for the planning,
implementation, and management of one-site or traveling exhibitions.
Organizers pay on a fee basis for TAP services and, if the exhibition
travels, receive participation fees from presenting institutions.
