Photography Policy 

Professional Photography/Videography:

Professional photographers and videographers MUST submit a permit application prior to photographing or filming on the museum’s grounds. The permit will be approved by either the museum’s Curator of Exhibitions and/or Museum Director. Examples of formal photography include, but are not limited to, bridal portraits, engagement photos, senior/graduation photos, and holiday family photos. Photography or videography sessions that may impede visitors from viewing artwork or that include set-ups with props will require an event rental fee to rent the space. Event rental fees are dependent upon the day, time and availability of the space. 

Personal Photography/Noncommercial Use: 

A permit is not required for personal photography or videography, solely for private, noncommercial use.

Flash photography, tripods, selfie sticks, standing lights, and other related equipment are prohibited. Accessories that are too large for one person to hold in their hands are prohibited. Resulting video images and photographs cannot be published, sold, reproduced, transferred, distributed, or otherwise commercially exploited in any manner whatsoever. 

The Museum reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to withhold and/or withdraw permission to film or photograph on its premises, or to reproduce videos or photographs of objects in its collections. Museum personnel are authorized to enforce all policies and procedures included herein. Visitors who are non-compliant may be asked to leave the premises by Museum staff.
