How to Host a Museo Egizio Exhibition?
Step-by-Step Process: From Concept to Opening in Six Phases
1. Enquiry
Tell us about your project: venue, budget, and target audience. We will recommend the most suitable exhibition format for your institution.
2. Co-Design
Work with our Curators, Registrar, and cultural mediation team to define the narrative, layout, communication strategy, and educational program.
3. Preparation
Administrative management of the loan process, production of custom supports for the artefacts, coordination of logistics and fine art services.
4. Transport and Installation
Our technical team supervises all handling and transportation procedures, from the packing of the artefacts to their final installation at the exhibition venue
5. Audience Engagement
We launch the exhibition with communication support, including press materials and a conference program.
6. Closing Phase
Deinstallation, return of the artefacts, and a shared impact report on the project. Ready for future collaborations.
