Before entering the Museum, all visitors are required to sign the following Visitor Practices and Policies Agreement, indicating that they have read, understand, and will comply with it during the length of their visit. Please note that these policies are subject to change without notice as the situation demands.

Visitor Practices and Policies Agreement

The Heckscher Museum is abiding by federal, state and local guidelines and regulations that follow best practices concerning public health and social distancing. Preventative measures have been put in place; however, this is no guarantee that you and your party will not be exposed to COVID-19 if you choose to enter the property.

• If you or someone in your party has COVID-19, is experiencing symptoms, or believes they have been exposed to the virus, please do not attempt to visit the Museum.
• All visitors and Museum staff are required to wear a mask or cloth face covering.
• Visitors and Museum staff will observe 6-foot social distancing at all times.
• Visitors will comply with temperature taking prior to entering the Museum building.
• Visitors who do not respect the requirements for temperature taking, a face covering, and social distancing will be asked to leave the premises.

A Museum staff member is stationed at the entrance door to:

• Greet visitors and answer questions about visitor requirements.
• Take the temperature of all visitors with a no-touch device. To do so, Museum staff will need to approach a visitor at a distance of less than 6 feet. If a visitor has a temperature of 100.4°F or higher, the Museum reserves the right to refuse them – and any other visitors in their party – entry to the building.
• Assure that visitors are wearing masks or a face covering, and understand social distancing requirements prior to entering the building.

Preventative measures inside the Museum:

• Restrooms are limited to one person or family at a time. The Museum will be frequently disinfecting and cleaning restrooms.
• A hand sanitizer station is available.
• Frequent cleaning schedules are in place for Museum public spaces.
• The drinking fountain and coat closet are not available.
• The Museum is providing a touch free environment and has removed interactive devices and other materials from public use.
