Dress Comfortably and Respectfully
You don't need to dress up, but avoid gym clothes or anything too casual. Comfortable shoes are a must!
Be Open to New Experiences
Galleries show a wide range of art. Keep an open mind and explore even if you're not sure you'll like everything.
Ask Questions
Gallery staff are there to help. Don't be afraid to ask about the artist, the work, or the gallery's program.
Don't Touch the Art
It's tempting, but oils and dirt from your hands can damage artwork. Always keep a respectful distance.
Take Your Time
There's no rush. Spend as much or as little time as you want with each piece.
Respect Photography Rules
Always ask before taking photos. Some galleries allow it, others don't.
Sign the Guestbook
It's a nice way to show your support and get on the gallery's mailing list.
