Consider the museum for your next event!
Portrait Photography
Portrait photography is permitted free of charge on the grounds of the Ashley County Museum. It is requested that the photographer coordinate with the Museum staff prior to the photo session.
Portrait photography inside the Ashley County Museum is available at a charge of $50. Again, photographers must call ahead to schedule times. There is no charge for portraits taken inside the museum for those renting the facility for a related event.
Respect
Facility renters are responsible to ensure that their guests, attendees and work staff display proper respect of Museum property, furnishings and landscaping. That respect should also extend to our neighbors and their property.
Smoking is not allowed on premises.
Alcohol
No alcohol allowed.
Decorations
Flower arrangements may be created outside the Museum. The use of staples or nails is strictly prohibited. Live plants rented for use on the grounds must be left outside until picked up. Our archival policy prohibits the use of live plants or burning candles inside the Museum, due to the hazards to our facility and exhibits posed by insect infestation and fire hazard.
Music
Small ensembles are permitted to play inside the Museum; however, amplified music and group dancing are not permitted in the house. Outside bands, disc jockeys, amplified music and dancing are permitted, but all music must cease by 11:00 PM, since we are located in a residential area.
Parking
Avoid parking on lawns and brickwork.
All events end by midnight with all items removed that night.
