Philadelphia Museum of Art

[Armymatt93]

Hey everyone! So I know this has been discussed a few times here but all of the posts are from years ago. Has anyone recently been to the Philadelphia Museum of Arts and cc'ed? Is it allowed? Are there posted signs? Searches? Etc...

Thanks!

There are no signs that I remember seeing, but the back of the tickets do say weapons are prohibited. There are no security checks that would discover a concealed firearm.

So use this information however you want.
