Art print question. I want to print a piece sized 8.5" x 11". Would 300 ppi be a good setting?

It depends on the paper and the size of the image. 300 is the minimun

Not really, no. Graphic designer here. 300 is standard, but as you go larger and work is viewed from a distance you can afford to lower resolution. Anything above 400 and you'd have a very hard time telling a difference even from extremely close, especially if print quality isn't great. A lot of fine art photographers print at 240 or even 200 PPI, and large things like wall stickers, ad banners, etc, can go even lower.
