Ackland Art Museum

After 10 months of closed doors and strictly virtual programming, on Wednesday, the Ackland Art Museum reopened to the public with newly implemented safety measures.

Under new protocol, the museum’s hours have been reduced to 1 to 5 p.m., Wednesday through Saturday. Visitors will be able to enter the museum for a one-hour preselected time slot. Guests can reserve tickets in advance on the Ackland’s website where admission will still be free. Tickets may be requested for parties of no more than four people per visit.

Additionally, overall museum capacity is limited to 25 percent to allow for more physical distancing throughout the building. Between each scheduled time slot, 30 minutes are reserved for cleaning. Staff and visitors are required to wear masks at all times.

With the reopening of the museum, visitors now have the chance to see their favorite exhibits in person.

Currently, one of the museums most prominent exhibits is a memorial for Breonna Taylor titled “Holding Space for Nobility.”
