Help! - I want to get advise about allowing photography in our museum and
art gallery. For 25 years we have had a no photography rule. It just seemed
too complicated to allow flash photography of some things and not others.
Then when modern flash didn't seem to be a big problem anymore the
complicated copyright issues became a new reason not to allow photos to be
taken. Today we made a visitor from Washington State very unhappy with us
because we would not allow him to take photographs - we are apparently the
only museum in the world who is still not allowing photos to be taken of
our exhibits. Is this true??? What are your policies out there??
