Filming/Photography
 

Although personal photography and videography are permitted at the Villa Terrace Art Museum, a general photography permit is required for all wedding, engagement, family, and school pictures or any other posed photography session that uses the museum as a backdrop and/or requires special attire.

Personal photography permits start at $100/hr (10 people or less) and are bookable via Square Appointments. A permit and certificate of insurance are required for all commercial and advertising photography. Commercial photography permits start at $400/hr and can be obtained via the form found here.

By requesting/booking a session you agree to the photography permit guidelines including all Rules, Fines and Fees applicable.

**Due to the immense demand for photography sessions, booking a photoshoot is treated as a REQUEST until our staff can confirm availability. If there is no availability, your request will be declined and you will not be charged. All requests are honored on a first-come, first-served basis.**

FAQs

Do you allow same day or walk-in appointments?

We do not allow impromptu or day-of photography appointments. You will be turned away without a permit and appointment.

Does CAVT provide a list of recommended photographers or videographers for their museums?

Photographers and videographers are not provided by the museum for events.

If I request a certain date/time and it is declined, should I try the same time again?

Do not attempt the same time, if your appointment is declined it means the time slot is already booked for another appointment or a private event. 

Is my card getting charged when I request an appointment?

No, your card will not be charged until Museum staff have reviewed and approved of your requested booking.
