Pushchairs are welcome and we have baby changing facilities. There are three activity stations for children around the gallery.

Dogs

We welcome Guide Dogs, but no other animals are allowed entry to the gallery.

Photography

Photography of our own works for personal use is welcome, but we do not allow flash, tripods and lights.

There are restrictions on photographing works that are on loan from other galleries.

If you would like to request permission to publish images of our works, use them commercially or enquire about copyright click here.

Enquiries

Our collections are extremely large so unfortunately we cannot always display everything. We regularly need to remove works from display for conservation or loan to other museums. If you are coming to York Art Gallery to see something specific, we advise you to contact us before visiting.

If you have any questions about visiting, telephone York Museums Trust on 01904 687687.
