Our center’s priority is to provide a safe environment for our visitors and staff using guidelines that can potentially limit and mitigate the effects of COVID-19. For the health and safety of visitors and staff, the following requirements and measures have been established:

• There is a limit of up to 5 people in the building per visit.
• All participants must wear a mask while attending a BHCC socially distanced class/workshop/event.
• Be prepared to arrive at the center on time. Although visits are scheduled in 30-minute slots,  visitors who are late for their appointments will not regain their lost viewing time and they will be asked to leave if the next group of patrons has arrived for their scheduled visit.
• Visitors will only have access to the exhibition spaces, lobby and restrooms. Other parts of the building, including staff offices, will be off-limits.
• Visitors will use the front lobby entrance to enter and exit the building. In case of an emergency, the other exits can be used.
• All visitors, two years of age and older, are required to wear protective masks that conform to CDC recommendations at all times while in the building. Hand sanitizer will be available at the check-in table.
• Food and beverages are not allowed in the building.
• Visitors must observe physical distancing of 6 feet with the staff and with individuals outside of their party.
• The staff will clean common touch points before each visit.
• Patrons who have tested positive for COVID-19, or those who suspect that they have been exposed to an individual with the virus or are feeling ill must cancel or postpone their visits.
• When guests have completed their visits, the staff will walk them to the exit and limit unnecessary access to other parts of the building.
