COVID-19

The PAFA administration closely monitors the global and local situation with regard to the 2019 novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19, including advisories from the World Health Organization (WHO), Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and local authorities. PAFA’s first priority is the safety of its community—including students, faculty, and staff—as well as visitors to PAFA’s museum, events, and programs. We all have a collective responsibility to mitigate the spread of this disease and protect those most vulnerable.

Masking

All members of the PAFA community and visitors are able to choose whether or not they want to wear a mask in our facilities. We encourage our community members to consider their personal situation and family circumstances and do what is best for you - and please respect everyone else's right to do the same, even if their choice differs from yours.

COVID-19 Vaccination

In June of 2021, to ensure the safety of our community members, PAFA announced that all faculty, staff and students are required to receive a COVID-19 vaccination with booster and the seasonal flu vaccination. We will comply with all federal and state laws in granting appropriate exemptions for medical or religious reasons.
