CONDITIONS OF ACCESS

Free admission
For the safety of the pieces:
- Do not lean on the showcases and avoid touching the pieces.
- Eat and drink whatever you like, but outside of the museum.
- Your pet can wait for you outside, unless it is a guide dog.
- To avoid slipping, the perfect spot for the umbrella is the umbrella stand.
- Remember that smoking is not good for your health. But if you are a smoker, do it outside of the museum.
- You can enter with your wheelchair or your baby’s pushchair. Shopping trolleys, scooters, skateboards, bicycles, tricycles or any other wheeled device for adults or children will remain outside of the museum.
- If you are carrying a bulky backpack, remember to be careful not to bump into the pieces. What do you think about putting it in front of you instead of on your back?
You can take as many pictures as you want, but better without flash. And then upload them to your social media. Do not forget to tag us with the hashtag #MuseoAfricanoUVa
