Masks-Wearing Required Inside VisArts Building in Adherence of High Covid Community Levels in Richmond

May 27, 2022 News

As of Friday, May 27, 2022, the Visual Arts Center of Richmond will require mask-wearing within the VisArts building in accordance with high-level transmission levels within Richmond city as defined by the CDC.

VisArts follows the VHD and CDC guidelines to define its COVID-19 Safety Policies. Currently, VisArts follows the recommendations based on the CDC COVID-19 Community levels. These levels can be low, medium, or high and are determined by looking at hospital data, and the total number of new COVID-19 cases in an area.

The City of Richmond is currently at a HIGH COVID-19 Community Level, which means masking is required indoors. Anyone coming into the Visual Arts Center facility is required to wear a mask. VisArts will have extra masks at the front desk for guests in need of one.

CDC-informed color-coded signage that indicates VisArts COVID-19 community levels are posted on the entrances of the building. Please check VisArts’ COVID-19 policy page for up-to-the-minute community level updates by county, and adhere to the color-coded signage posted at our doors.
