Compromiso de SAMA con nuestros visitantes en Español 

The San Antonio Museum of Art is dedicated to providing transformative experiences with exceptional works of art for our visitors. The Museum is a place for people to gather, to be inspired, and to learn about human creativity throughout time, and we strongly believe that art museums will play a vital role in the recovery of our communities from the COVID-19 pandemic.  

In these unprecedented and challenging times, we are committed to fulfilling our mission in a manner that places the safety and well-being of Museum staff and visitors at highest priority. In developing appropriate protocols and procedures, the Museum will follow the recommended guidelines of the CDC and state and local government officials. 
 
We appreciate the continuing support of our staff, members, and visitors, and we seek our community’s partnership to help SAMA remain a key contributor to the intellectual, artistic, and cultural landscape.

• Require all staff, members, and visitors (ages 10 and up) to wear masks/face coverings inside of the Museum, in common indoor spaces, and outdoors when not able to be socially distanced. We are wearing masks to protect you, so we ask you to wear a mask to protect us.
• Limit occupancy to 75%
• Provide online ticketing for contactless payment 
• Enforce physical distancing
• Train our employees on proper disinfection of high-touch surfaces, respiratory etiquette, hand hygiene, and proper donning and doffing of PPE
• Prescreen the health of our employees, requiring them to stay home if they feel sick, and ask our visitors to do the same
• Follow CDC cleaning protocols and frequently disinfect regularly touched surfaces
• Make soap and hand sanitizer available to employees and visitors
• Install sneeze guards 

In SAMA’s outdoor spaces, we will:

• Require guests and employees to maintain at least six feet social distance from other individuals not within the same household and to wear a face mask if not able to socially distance
• Limit and space out seating and tables to avoid congregating
