Dear SETEG Membership:

Yesterday I visited an institution that was looking to create their
own traveling exhibitions program. They are looking to travel a 200-
piece show on Native American artifacts, specifically Catawba
pottery. However, there are just two people that work for this
institution and neither have a great deal of experience in packing
objects professionally. Does anyone here have any experience in
dealing with fine art services that pack and crate objects for a
traveling exhibition? Information on experiences, estimated costs,
time, etc. would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks!

I know several people who have been happy with Bonsai Fine Arts
(bonsai-finearts.com). I cannot speak to their prices, however.

I work with two local companies, 360 Art Services and Ty Art. If they would like to contact me I would be happy to assist them with more detailed information and contacts.

Best,

We have used USArt and ArtTex with great success. They both do packing and crating. It is not cheap, but the quality is high.

Inside Peanuts: The Life and Art of Charles M. Schulz

For nearly fifty years, Charles Monroe Schulz entertained audiences from around the world with his Peanuts comic strip. With his endearing Peanuts characters, Schulz explored a broad range of emotions, from friendship and faith to tolerance and disappointment. Inside Peanuts: The Life and Art of Charles M. Schulz celebrates the cartoonist’s extraordinary life and describes his creative process and artistic focus.

This exhibition contains reproduction comic strips and preliminary sketches that follow the development of the characters who make up the unique world of Peanuts, quotes by Schulz explaining his art, and selected Peanuts collectibles from six decades. Tear sheets of comic strips by prominent cartoonists who influenced Schulz as a young artist reveal the contrast of Schulz’s drawing style to the elaborately illustrated cartoons popular during the early twentieth century. These elements create an experience for visitors that will illuminate the story behind the creation of one of the most popular and influential cartoon strips of all time.

The exhibit is sized for a 1500 square foot gallery and contains: 22 framed groups of high-res digital reproductions of original Peanuts strips, 65 three-dimensional objects, 6 digital reproduction prints of Charles M. Schulz’s office, 5 text panels, 12 Peanuts character panels, 4 graphic panels with labels, 3 wall labels, 7 object labels, and media CD
