On a space-available basis AND with prior reservations through the Group Sales office, City Museum may also allow a limited number of admission-paying parties to pose for pictures in certain spaces. Although we are delighted to be a part of the celebration, we will not allow parties to bring food or beverages into City Museum. City Museum reserves the right to refuse admittance for photography and/or to change its Photo Policy without advance notice.
