KID-FRIENDLY RULES

LOOK CLOSELY! Pay close attention to the artwork, the space, and those around you. Learning to observe is part of the experience.

STAND BACK! Don’t get too close to the artwork. If you can reach out and touch the artwork, you are too close. 

NO HANDS! Did you know that the natural oils in your skin can damage the artwork? This is why it is important that we never touch the art. We want to keep it safe for everyone to enjoy. If you are close enough to touch it, take a step back.

WALK, DON’T RUN! It is important to walk while you are inside the museum. Running and horseplay can be dangerous for you, the artwork, and other visitors.

STAY TOGETHER! Kids should always stay with their adult.

CREATE WITH PENCILS! Galleries are a great place to create masterpieces of your own, but it is important to use pencils, not pens or other wet media. These materials can damage works of art if there is an accident.
