Gallery Rules

  • Look at the art with your eyes, not your hands.

  • Eat and drink in the Cafeteria or Sketches, not in the galleries.

  • Pay attention to your guide, not your smartphone. 

  • Walk; do not run.

  • Stay with your group leader.

  • Leave your valuables at home or carry them with you.

  • Leave your large bags or backpacks, umbrellas and other large items in our free cloakroom.

Arriving at the Gallery

We recommend you arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the start of your program. If delayed, please call 613-990-4888 to advise. Late arrivals may result in your program being shortened or cancelled.

Upon arrival, please check in with the Visitor Experience team at the Group Entrance, located in the Foyer who will provide further instructions.

Your students will have access to a group coat check where they can leave backpacks, coats, etc.

Chaperones and teachers must remain with school groups at all times.
