 * When would you need to know details of those pieces for the booklet or auction website/app? We will be putting the book together in February, and the auction will be finalized mid- late March. The sooner we have them, the better


 * When would you need to actual artwork to be delivered to you if it needs to be framed, mounted, or something along those line to be auctioned? For promoting the pieces we'd like to take a picture of the completed artwork framed, etc. By mid-March would be preferable.


 * Jennifer took a bunch of notes last year so that we know how to set up the "Art Show" better this year, but the easels and high top tables were perfect last year and there was a perfect amount. Can we keep that the same this year? We are finalizing our contract with the Hyatt right now and we will request the same set up.
