Where should we enter the museum?
Access points to the museum are Spring Garden Street and Art Museum Drive (aka Anne d'Harnoncourt Drive) and 25th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue
All guests should enter the museum from the West Entrance.
Please be sure to arrive no later than 7:30pm to avoid any issues getting into the museum, as there is a concert happening the same time as the wedding outside of the museum and you may not be able to gain access after 7:30pm.
If there are any security stops on your way in, please let them know that you're there for the wedding and they should let you in with no issues.
Please see the first image below with the open access point in pink and the West Entrance circled in green. The second image depicts the museum-recommended driving route.
