PHOTOGRAPHY REPRODUCTION TERMS OF AGREEMENT

The Museum of Nebraska Art (MONA) celebrates Nebraska's artistic culture and heritage by collecting and preserving, exhibiting and interpreting the art of Nebraska. Art of Nebraska is defined as art that was created by an artist born, raised, trained, or domiciled in Nebraska or with a substantial connection to Nebraska, or art that reflects Nebraska's culture and environment. The Museum of Nebraska Art Collection is the state's official visual art collection.

With this unique mission and collection, MONA receives a variety of requests for photographic images of artworks in the permanent collection. These normally consist of use in text books, exhibition catalogues, articles, books, and other written publications, but also includes posters, calendars, and cards as well as film, video, television, and e-books.
