Visitor Guidelines
Thank you for not touching the art so that it may be enjoyed by generations to come!
Did you know, the gentlest contact with a work of art can cause irreversible damage to all kinds of surfaces, even metal and stone? Pressure can cause old paintings to crack. Natural oils, moisture, and dirt in our skin can result in permanent stains, fingerprints, and even the chemical breakdown of canvases, papers, pigments, and varnishes.
The Crocker loves photography! Please take photographs throughout the Museum and share your art-ventures with us on social media @crockerart / #crockerart. We ask that you DO NOT use flash and to refrain from taking photos in exhibitions with the “no photography” symbol, as some exhibition contracts prohibit photography.
Please note that all photoshoots and professional photography within the Museum require advance approval. We are not currently booking photoshoots, but check back later for updates.
Enjoy the delicious fare from Majka at the Crocker on the first floor of the Museum in Friedman Court or just across the street at one of the picnic tables in Crocker Park, but please leave personal food and drinks at home when visiting the Museum. Closed water bottles are allowed, but packed lunches and other snacks are not permitted.
To protect the art and prevent unwanted visitors like insects and rodents, no food or drinks are allowed in the galleries or inside the Setzer Foundation Auditorium.
Many of our programs and events are photographed for marketing purposes. Therefore, it is possible a photograph with your image will be used to promote the Museum digitally or in print. If you do not want to be photographed, you may request a sticker to wear during your visit to help ensure you are not included in these marketing materials.
The Museum no longer requires masks while visiting. We support those who wish to continue to mask indoors including those who are immunocompromised or otherwise concerned. Masks are strongly encouraged for those who are unvaccinated, and for all visitors in small or enclosed spaces.
