Health and safety are our priorities. 

We've developed a reopening plan that fully adheres to guidance from the University of Oregon and Oregon’s Office of the Governor. The plan prioritizes the health and safety of our visitors, volunteers, students, and staff while recognizing the importance of community access to exhibits on Indigenous cultures, race and justice, and environmental stewardship. 

We have several measures in place to protect the health of our visitors and staff:

  • All visitors must wear a mask or other face covering during their visit and maintain a distance of at least six feet from anyone not in their household. Please note that masks are required in all indoor public spaces on the University of Oregon campus. 
  • We are facilitating social distancing by limiting the number of people in the museum building at any one time, providing signage to ensure a safer flow of traffic through the exhibit halls, and requiring that visiting children be closely supervised by their adult(s) at all times. 
  • We urge all visitors to stay home when sick. Please review the University of Oregon's symptom checker and make sure you haven't experienced any of the listed symptoms during the 72 hours leading up to your visit. Museum staff members are also committed to staying home when sick and will perform a standardized symptom check before coming to work each day.    
  • We’re providing visitors with additional hand-washing and hand-sanitizing stations and conducting frequent cleaning and sanitizing procedures throughout the building.  
  • We will accept only credit and debit card payments or exact change for cash payments.
  • Groups of more than 10 are not permitted in the museum at this time.

Open hours and safety protocols are subject to change based on continuing guidance from the University of Oregon and the Oregon Health Authority. Please stay tuned to our website for updates.
