Photography

Members of the media who wish to film or take photography inside the Worcester Art Museum must be accompanied by a member of the Communications and Marketing Department. During photo shoots, we ask that all free-standing film and lighting equipment be properly weighted and all electrical cords taped. Published images of the Worcester Art Museum and its collections must be accompanied by appropriate credit lines. Site visits or pre-filming/photography meetings may be requested to assess the physical requirements and restrictions. View list of approved photography equipment (PDF 51KB).
