A mobile gallery would be great to show prints.

I checked out a mobile gallery -- Projectos Impala -- in Ciudad Juarez, just across the border from El Paso:

Projectos Impala is a mobile gallery made out of a shipping trailer, and travels to various locations in Ciudad Juarez:

On April 13th, the mobile gallery

was adjacent to the Juarez Museum of Art
