Young At Art Museum is committed to the health of our visitors and staff and promoting the safety of our community is our top priority. We are continuing to monitor each update on COVID-19 and are following the recommendations of public health officials and the CDC.
As a family institution, following best practices when it comes to hygiene is paramount. In addition to promoting frequent hand washing, enhancements have been made to our daily cleaning routine as we ensure our staff is diligently disinfecting and sanitizing common area surfaces and high traffic areas multiple times throughout the day. There will be stringent guidelines that include the following: handwashing procedures, frequent cleaning and social distancing in classrooms and exhibits, masks worn by both children and teachers, curbside pick-up/ drop-off, temperature checks during curbside check-in with a touchless thermometer, "Stay at Home" protocol for any campers who exhibit symptoms upon check-in, protocol for the immediate separation and pick up of campers who develop symptoms, students to bring their own lunches to reduce food handling, "Camp only" bathrooms and bathrooms cleaned after each use. Please note children will not be in the galleries with the general public.
We are asking children and families who are exhibiting flu-like symptoms or have recently traveled by plane, train or cruise ship to refrain from registering. We reserve the right to turn away participants from registering who exhibit any of the symptoms below.
