COVID-19 Safety

• Artbarn is a mask-friendly space. Masks are currently optional for all actors and staff. Everyone is welcome to wear a mask at any time and for any reason and we encourage masking for anyone who feels more comfortable doing so.

• All participants aged 5 & up are required to be fully vaccinated – all recommended COVID-19 vaccines and boosters.

• Any participant or staff member showing symptoms of COVID-19 will be isolated while arrangements are made for them to leave rehearsal.

• In accordance with CDC guidelines: any actor, intern, or staff member who tests positive for COVID-19 (regardless of their vaccination status), may only return to Artbarn after a 5-day isolation period and provided that (a) they have not had a fever or used a fever-reducing medication in the last 24 hours, (b) their symptoms are improving, and (c) they have not been instructed to continue isolating by a doctor or school health official.

• Note – the Artbarn staff and interns are all fully vaccinated.
