LOCATION SPOTLIGHT: FILMING IN MUSEUMS & EVENT SPACES

Filming in museums and event spaces is typically on a case-by-case basis. Many facilities have strict policies regarding filming while inside the building. While rules vary widely, generally speaking, filming at museums is not forbidden but it can take some of lead time to sort out the plan.

The newest and largest facility is the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach. The space is modern and expansive with four event spaces over 2000 sq. ft. as well as outdoor gardens, a restaurant with private dining space, reflection pool, screening room and classrooms that can be utilized for film projects.

Housed inside the 1916 Courthouse is the Richard and Pat Johnson Palm Beach County History Museum which houses thousands of items related to Palm Beaches County’s rich history.  The entire building is authentic to the core architecturally with coffered ceilings, mosaic tile inlays and dark wood doors.

The Boca Raton Museum of Art offers a contemporary space that includes an outdoor sculpture garden set at the north end of Mizner Park.  The setting is light and bright with blonde woods and punches of color throughout the property.  Their 2 story vaulted ceiling Grand Hall is impressive and available for a variety of projects.
