Photography Policy

Caponi Art Park, and its unique spaces, art and earthworks, is a distinctive place to inspire photographers to shoot images unlike any other. Visitors are welcome to take still photographs and videos for personal, noncommercial use. Consider entering your photographs into the Photo Contest and Exhibition. The Art Park is also used by commercial photographers for nature stills, family photos, senior pictures and engagement portraits.
