Guidelines for Visiting
The DIA belongs to all of us, and to ensure that everyone enjoys their visit, please observe the following guidelines:

Please check coats, backpacks, tote bags, briefcases, umbrellas and portfolios at the attended coatroom at the Farnsworth entrance. This is a complimentary service. In addition, please be aware that all bags must be inspected upon entrance to the museum. We appreciate your cooperation, and apologize for any inconvenience.
To protect the art, food, drink, gum and candy are not allowed in the galleries. Food and beverages may be purchased and enjoyed in CaféDIA and Kresge court.
The DIA is a non-smoking building.
Because a small amount of oil and dirt can cause damage, visitors are asked not to touch the artwork. Younger guests can learn more about this policy by visiting Artie the Donkey.
In most cases, sketching is permitted in all galleries of the DIA. Sketching permits can be obtained from the welcome desks at the Farnsworth entrance. Sketching is generally not permitted in special exhibitions.

Family Fun

Drop-in art workshops, drawing in the galleries, storytelling, live music and family performances also provide engaging experiences for families.
