Accessibility |
We advise those with visual impairments that some gallery exhibition spaces are dimly lit in order to protect light sensitive artworks. The Tom Thomson Art Gallery is now fully accessible again following a year-long project that included construction of the front entrance and the replacement of an outdated passenger lift with an elevator. The project was funded in part by the Canada Community Revitalization Fund grant through the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario. For more information, please visit their website. For questions related to accessibility, please contact the Gallery. |

Photography & Video |
We encourage visitors to capture their visit and share on social media with @tomthomsonartgallery. To protect the artworks being photographed, and for the safety of other guests, the guidelines below must be followed when photographing at the Tom Thomson Art Gallery.
Privacy and Visitor ExperiencePlease be mindful that your photography or video activities respect the needs and privacy of other visitors. Photography must be conducted without disruption to Gallery operations, or limitation to the accessibility of exhibitions, entrances/exits, doorways, and high-traffic areas. Photography of children and young people is prohibited without consent of the accompanying adult. This includes, for example, school groups and/or those attending family events. The Tom Thomson Art Gallery reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to withhold and/or withdraw permission to photograph or videotape on its premises if it is a disruption and/or is perceived that it might endanger works of art or other visitors. Commercial or Personal PhotographyThroughout the Gallery, we want to keep galleries as open as possible so visitors can enjoy what they came for: experiencing the great works of art on view. While we encourage visitors to capture their visit as they experience the art, we find that posed or staged photo shoots can limit the ability of other visitors to experience the museum. Because of that, staged photography, with or without a hired professional photographer, is not permitted in the Gallery during visitor hours including, but not limited to, product or fashion, graduations, proms, engagement/bridal portraits, or weddings. Press / News CoverageThe Tom Thomson Art Gallery welcomes news media filming and photography in connection with stories about the gallery. Media inquiries should be sent to: ttag@tomthomson.org Live Streaming Video AppsLive-streaming video apps such as Instagram and Facebook Live are permitted in the permanent collection galleries, subject to the same conditions described above. We ask that live broadcasts respect the privacy of other visitors, and that volunteers and staff not be interviewed or otherwise engaged in a way that takes them away from their primary job duties. Gallery PhotographyWhile at the Tom Thomson Art Gallery, visitors may be photographed by Gallery photographers or other authorized parties. These images may be used to publicize the Gallery and its activities in print, online, and in display materials, and they may also be distributed to the media. Attendance on the Gallery premises constitutes implied consent for the use of visitors’ likenesses in the Gallery’s promotional materials. |
