You can use “Retouch Varnish”, either spray or brush-on. This reduces the tackiness of the surface enough to transport & exhibit the painting while allowing the paint to cure properly beneath. It also provides somewhat of a protective coat, though it does not seal like a final varnish.

Many artists exhibit & sell their work this way, with a note advising the buyer has the painting varnished after a certain date.
