A safe museum visit  

Safer space principles

Vantaa City Museum is a discrimination-free zone. Our museum does not tolerate any discrimination, humiliation, derision, or bullying. We respect one another's mental and physical states.

We do not make assumptions based on, for example, sex, background, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, functional capacity, or wealth.

Please adhere to these principles when visiting our museum and using our services.

If you notice any inappropriate treatment at our library, do not hesitate to contact an employee of Vantaa City Museum. We will try to help to the best of our ability. You can also submit feedback on the Oma Vantaa online service.
