Copyright and reproduction

A form to request permission to draw, photograph or make video recordings in Glasgow Museums’ venues for personal use is available from the Enquiries Desks at our museums and must be completed before undertaking any of the above.

Photography for personal use without the use of tripods is usually permitted, but due to the sensitive nature of many of our exhibits, and the possible damaging effects of flash photography, permission must be sought beforehand.

Please note that due to copyright and loan restrictions, photography in exhibitions may not always be permitted.

Our venues are frequently used by television and film companies. To make an enquiry, please contact glasgowmuseumshire@glasgowlife.org.uk or call 0141 276 9539
