Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Parking at the Columbia Museum of Art The Columbia Museum of Art is at 1515 Main Street in downtown Columbia, 0.4 mi from Columbia center. The museum’s official directions and parking page is the starting point for reaching the site by car, while the address places the entrance directly on Main Street (columbiamuseum.org). For a visit focused on the galleries, planning around the museum’s Main Street location is more practical than assuming an on-site lot. The official visit information also notes that backpacks, parcels, and bags larger than 14.5” x 17” x 8” are not permitted inside, although smaller bags, including backpacks, are allowed in the galleries (columbiamuseum.org). ## Parksy Parking Near Main Street and the CMA The closest priced Parksy option is an outdoor lot at 2012 Lincoln Street, 0.5 mi from the CMA, at $1 an hour. Its location makes it the clearest Parksy choice for a short museum stop when a low hourly rate matters more than parking directly beside the building. Parksy also lists three priced spaces in West Columbia, each 7.5 mi away: two secure gated parking options at $165 a month and a secure 24/7 lot at $75 a week. Two further outdoor options in West Columbia are 8.0 mi away and cost $25 a month each. Those longer-distance listings suit extended vehicle storage rather than a gallery visit in central Columbia.
