Events scheduled for the interior spaces are limited to meetings, not parties. Indoor gatherings take place in the art galleries and must be limited in scope to protect museum displays and exhibits. We do not, for example, allow smoking, open flames, raucous games or behavior, party projectiles (confetti or poppers), or decorations except table or free standing decorations.
