PLANNING

This is a very important and neccessary part of organising your Exhibition and needs to be thought about early on, as does deciding what your exhibition is about.
Think about a 'Theme' or not, and a 'Title'. How many items you will need to produce.
How many will need framing, know how many, or how much, will fit comfortably into the exhibition room you have chosen, without being either too sparse or overfilled....................................

Oh, dear, so so  many things to think about....
These are all things which you need to look into.
 Soooo my BEST recommendation is to get a booklet and start to make notes very early on.
Add to it as you think of things .......................  check them off or add more items..........
