Plan Your Visit

Some Dos and Don’ts to help make visiting the Momentary as enjoyable as possible for all.

The Momentary is committed to the principles of welcoming, sharing, and respect for all. We reserve the right to refuse admission to or eject any person whose conduct deems to be disorderly or abusive or who fails to comply with these or other rules at the Momentary.

Keep Your Distance From The Art

We’re generally cool here, but if we had to have one rule, it is this: please do not touch works of art or frames as any contact can damage a painting or sculpture. These pieces are going to last longer than any of us – let’s please try to keep them intact for the next generation.

No outside food and drinks, please. Beverages purchased on-site with lids intact are allowed in the galleries. Picnicking is encouraged on the Momentary Green, but please do not bring coolers. Outside alcohol is not permitted.

Concerts and Festivals

Music events at the Momentary have their own rules and restrictions to keep everyone’s experience as enjoyable as possible, including limits on folding chairs, pets, and bags allowed into venues. Check our Concert and Festival rules and guidelines here.

The Momentary is committed to making the galleries and grounds accessible for all visitors. Please note that our efforts to make our website, programs, and spaces more accessible are ongoing. A number of on-site accommodations are offered for guests with disabilities in order to assure an enjoyable and engaging experience. Below is a list of amenities available.

Mobility

All interior spaces of the Momentary are fully wheelchair accessible. Wheelchair and family-accessible restrooms and elevators are located throughout the museum. Personal wheelchairs, canes with rubber tips, and motorized mobility devices are also permitted in the Momentary. A limited number of wheelchairs and walkers are available on a first-come, first-serve basis, at no cost. These items can be requested from Box Office staff in the Lobby.

Lighting

When there are exhibitions featuring artworks with flashing lights, signage notifying visitors of where these lights are located will be available.

Enchroma Glasses For Colorblindness

EnChroma colorblind glasses are available for guests who are colorblind to use at no cost during their visit. The Momentary can provide glasses for indoor and outdoor viewing in adult and youth sizes, and there are also fit-over glasses available for guests who wear regular glasses. These glasses are available for check-out from the Box Office staff in the Lobby. To check-out, please present a form of ID to leave at the Lobby desk while you use the glasses during your visit.

Service Animals

Service animals are welcome at the Momentary. The Momentary abides by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and allows service animals, that is, animals trained to do work or perform specific tasks for the benefit of an individual with disabilities, into all the public areas of the space. The ADA does not currently recognize emotional support animals, therefore emotional support animals and all other animals not specifically covered in the American with Disabilities Act will not be permitted within the Momentary. Other leashed pets must remain outside the building, which includes the Momentary Green.
