Complete info about the show, project, visiting artist, or event need to be sent along with the logistical data: date, time, place, opening hours, opening reception date/time, etc.
Exhibitions - send a paragraph about the artist and/or the concept behind the work or installation, or about the curatorial perspective, for example, from which the show was organized (if it is a curated exhibition).
Visiting Artist Lecture Series or any other guest speaker - send a short paragraph about the visiting artist or lecturer and info on what they / what they will be addressing.
