Carla, for that type of exhibit, you might ask the Mazza Collection in Findlay, Ohio, at the U of Findlay. They have had several exhibits put together of a number of artists. They have one or two exhibits they travel, and then the Meridian International Center in Washington, D.C., has organized a couple of touring exhibits for the Mazza. The ones the Meridian Center has organized are expensive, however, running about $7500 to rent, if I remember correctly. Both places have a website if you want to do a search. Good luck!

Becky,
Thank-you for the information you sent about the touring illustration exhibits. I will forward the material to the people in charge of brainstorming new exhibits. I appreciate your prompt response. The expense could be a bit of a problem, and I was hoping that there would be several artists represented in an exhibit, for example, 3-5 illustrations from a variety of well known works of childrens' fiction.
Thank-you,
Carla Morrison
