Writing an exhibition invitation
Let the invitation carry the show: the title, an image of the work, the dates and the address, and the tours and talks the evening holds. Send lenders, sponsors, press and the wider public separate rounds by filtering the list by guest type, each with words that suit them.

Exhibition RSVPs and visit time slots
Offer visit slots in the reply, such as 18:00 to 19:00 and 19:00 to 20:00, so the first hour does not overflow, and ask which works a guest hopes to see. The export shows how the evening spreads before it starts and tells the floor staff where people will gather.

Managing exhibition visitors and guest lists
Lenders, collectors, press, sponsors and the artists’ circles often arrive on separate spreadsheets. Import them into one list, review likely duplicates, and mark each guest by type. When the artist sends twenty more names, add them; only the new guests receive the invitation.

Visitor check-in at an exhibition
With door check-in, every scan is timed, and the arrivals report shows the rooms filling hour by hour, so you can see whether visitors kept to the slots they chose. Without it, check names against your printed or exported list at the entrance.
