KNOW

Although we have implemented enhanced health and safety measures, we cannot guarantee that any visitor will not contract COVID-19 during their visit. A risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public setting. To support our efforts to provide a safe experience for staff and visitors, we kindly ask that you review the follow information:

• Do you have symptoms?: Stay home if you are unwell, are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, have been diagnosed with COVID-19 within 14 days prior to your visit, or have been in close contact with someone who has been diagnosed with or is experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 within 14 days prior to your visit.
• Mask Requirement: Be sure to bring a mask or face covering and wear it properly throughout the course of your visit. Masks should fit securely over your nose, mouth, and chin. We encourage the use of a surgical-style, cup-style, or double-layer cloth masks as an effective means of protection. Single-layer cloth face coverings, such as bandanas and gaiters, are not allowed. All visitors aged 2 and older are REQUIRED to wear masks during your visit.
• Accommodations: To request an accommodation based on a medical condition or disability, please email us prior to your visit.
• Guidelines: Abide by the guidelines on the HMSC museum websites and by all instructions posted in the museums or provided by staff during the visit. If a visitor fails to follow the museums’ guidelines and instructions, they may be denied entry or required to leave the premises.
• Museum Information: Make the most of your visit to any of our four museums with up-to-date hours, admission fees, parking, and more.
