Costume and Event Guidelines:
All visitors are welcome to wear costumes to the Bruce Museum. The Bruce Museum is committed to fostering a safe and inclusive environment for all of our visitors. In that spirit, we do not allow costumes that perpetuate cultural appropriation, discrimination, or violence of any kind.

Please consult the following guidelines when selecting your costume:

  • No full face-covering Halloween masks
  • No large accessories or replica/toy weapons of any kind – you will be asked to return these to your vehicle or place them in a locker or the cloak room.
  • For the protection of the art and objects on display, please avoid wearing a costume which sheds excessively.

The Bruce Museum reserves the right to refuse entrance to the Museum if the costume is deemed inappropriate, as determined by Bruce Museum staff.
