Last night I was a panelist on a program for the Washington DC Metro Chapter of the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals (NAPO), which I am part of as a Business Partner Member. My presentation focused on fine art and my goal was to educate and help the professional organizers in the NAPO membership feel more confident about identifying and recognizing potentially important art in future client homes so they could protect and represent their clients’ best interests.
The panel’s presentation was not recorded but I have subsequently recorded a fresh version of just my own presentation so that the educational content will be available to NAPO members who were not able to attend the live panel, or as a long-term resource to consult again when needed.
While this content was written specifically for the needs of professional organizers, it may be useful for a wider audience, so I am sharing it here to make it accessible to all. This is only a very brief introduction to a very complicated topic, with lots of exceptions and case-specific considerations, but it is my hope this will be a useful first overview for someone looking to learn more about the subject.
