The CDC updated its guidelines regarding the need to wear face coverings in public settings for protection against COVID-19. The CMA recommends but no longer requires visitors to wear a face covering inside the building.

The museum will retain the Plexiglas barriers in the north lobby, at the information desk, in the store, and in Provenance Café.

See the CMA’s full Museum Policies, Privacy Policy, and Terms and Conditions for more information.
