It came to our attention that not everyone is aware of proper art gallery etiquette.   in a gallery setting,, it is never appropriate to take pictures of the art work—if you have permission from the artist, you may take a photo, but not in the gallery.  It must be done somewhere else.  If you copy or use other artists’ ideas, it is the same as plagiarism in literature.  You could be barred as a member of the Gallery and/or the Artist’s Guild, and even prosecuted.  Also, it is never–under any circumstances–appropriate to touch or feel a piece of art.  And lastly, it is never appropriate to record any of the music at the gallery. Signs are being made to hang in the gallery so that everyone will be reminded of these rules.
