Please follow these guidelines to help keep everyone safe during COVID-19.

We are committed to keeping you healthy and safe, but please be aware exposure to COVID-19 is possible in public places.

To help mitigate exposure and ensure the best possible experience, all tickets are timed and must be purchased in advance. Members also need to reserve a timed-entry slot. Please contact info@denverartmuseum.org with any questions.

We ask that you follow these guidelines:

Masks Encouraged

Masks are encouraged throughout your visit. Please wear a mask that fully covers your nose and mouth. If you don’t have your own mask, we can provide one for you.

If you require an additional seating option during your visit, we have portable stools available throughout the museum. Stools will be cleaned after each use.

Elevator

Please limit the number of visitors per elevator car to 4 people per ride. Groups of family members visiting together may exceed this guideline.
