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 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.
