Policies

Social Media Policy​

 

Bolm Arts’ social media platforms are an extension of our gallery space—created to encourage connection, dialogue, and the celebration of artists and culture. We welcome respectful engagement and open conversation.

​

To maintain a safe and constructive environment, Bolm Arts does not tolerate harassment, hate speech, discrimination, threats, misinformation presented as fact, or personal attacks toward artists, visitors, staff, or partner organizations. We reserve the right to hide, delete, or restrict comments and content that violate these standards, and may block accounts that repeatedly engage in disruptive behavior.

​

Image Credits / Tagging Policy

 

Bolm Arts encourages visitors and community members to share images of exhibitions and events to help amplify our artists and programming. When posting, we ask that you credit the artist whenever possible and tag @bolm_arts.

​

If the artwork label includes the artist’s name, please include it in your caption. For reposts, Bolm Arts prioritizes proper attribution and may request edits or removal of content if artwork is shared without appropriate credit or outside approved use.

​

Photography & Videography Policy

​

Bolm Arts welcomes personal photography and videography for private, non-commercial use unless otherwise noted by the exhibition or artist. Visitors are expected to be mindful of the artwork, other guests, and the gallery environment.

​

The following are prohibited without prior written approval:

• Professional photography or filming

• Flash photography

• Tripods, stabilizers, lighting equipment, or large production setups

• Any activity that disrupts programming, exhibitions, or visitor experience

​

Bolm Arts reserves the right to limit or revoke permission to photograph or record at any time. Staff and leadership are authorized to enforce these policies to protect artists, visitors, and the integrity of the gallery space.
