Guests are encouraged to take photographs and videos in public spaces for personal, non-commercial use. Flash photography, tripods, monopods, selfie sticks, and disruptions to other guests are prohibited. AMFA reserves the right to restrict photography/videography at any time.

Commercial photography and professional portrait photography or videography are not permitted without advance notification and an AMFA-issued photo pass. Please review our Photography Policy and Guidelines for more information about photography sessions inside and outside the Museum, and to request a photo pass.

We invite you to join us at our restaurant, Park Grill, or in the Cultural Living Room for food or beverages. Outside food and drink (other than water) is not permitted.

No food or beverages are permitted in the galleries.

AMFA welcomes all families. We have three family restrooms for your convenience, and the family restroom in the 1937 Lobby is equipped with comfortable seating for nursing mothers.

Nursing is welcome anywhere in the Museum. If mothers prefer more privacy, there is a designated space with comfortable seating. Please ask a Guest Services Assistant for access.

No animals, other than service animals, are allowed in the building.

Comfort animals, therapy animals, companion animals, or emotional support animals are not considered service animals as defined by the ADA, as they are not trained to perform a specific task for an individual with a disability.
