Museum etiquette guidelines Accordion Closed

Please help us to protect the artwork we have on display, for future generations to enjoy, by respecting these guidelines:

Food, and beverages (including water) must remain outside the gallery or may be left at the front reception desk.

No chewing gum.

Please do not touch artwork, pedestals, or walls.

Backpacks, portfolios, briefcases, large purses, and similar items must be left with the gallery attendant or museum staff upon entering the museum. You may also leave your coat or jacket if you like.

Use only pencils for note-taking and sketching in the galleries. Pens and other indelible marking instruments can be detrimental to artworks.

Please check with museum staff regarding photography in the museum. Generally, photography is not allowed, but certain exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis. Flash photography is detrimental to many types of artworks, and so is not permitted.

Please be considerate of others, turn cell phones off or down while in the museum, and step outside the museum galleries to have telephone conversations.

Please leave pets in a safe location outside of the building.

Selfie sticks are prohibited.

As a precaution, artwork should be viewed from a minimum of 3.5 feet away. When backing up to view artwork from a greater distance, be aware of your surroundings to avoid backing into another artwork.
