Health and safety

Your safety, health and well-being—and those of our staff—are a top priority for us.

What we’re doing

  • We’re thoroughly sanitizing all spaces, with regular cleaning of all high-touch areas such as tables and chairs, handrails, doors, elevators and interactives.
  • We’ve placed hand-sanitizing dispensers throughout the Museum.
  • We’re using a state-of-the art HVAC system with a MERV 16 rating, ensuring regular fresh air exchange and filtration.
  • We stay home if we’re experiencing symptoms.

What you can do

  • Stay home if you are sick or at risk of an infection.
  • Give each other a little extra space while visiting.
  • Use hand sanitizer and wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
