Got asked to display some photos in an art show...could use some help please

[waterjug]

So I got asked to display some of my nature photos in an art show coming up in a week. I have never done this before. I have a photolab picked out for printing them (NOT walmart/walgreens, etc.). I picked out the photos I'm going to use; I'm assuming use 300 DPI at least, and crop them as needed to get a standard size to print on, they're all very close as is. So what else do I need to do? Apparently they'll have easels or something to display them on. But like what do I mount these things on once they arrive? Do I use putty or something to slap them up on a board? This is the part that's baffling me the most.

Thanks

Frames (even simple ones) would help keep them upright and straight. Or mount them to felt/cork/poster/foam board if you want to go the less expensive route.

Thanks!

how do you mount them exactly? Putty?

Get them printed on matboard or styrene if you don't want to use a frame.

Scroll down to mounting options.
