Guild Hall Covid-19 Safety Protocols
updated 11/21/2022

The Episcopal Actors’ Guild is a fully vaccinated facility.
Our entire staff is fully vaccinated and boosted.  Everyone entering Guild Hall must be FULLY vaccinated. You are considered fully vaccinated for Covid-19 two weeks (14 days) after you have received a second dose in a two-dose vaccine series or two weeks (14 days) after you have received a single-dose vaccine. We cannot make any exceptions. You will be asked to provide in-person proof of vaccination and present a photo ID at the door and must wear a well-fitted, high-filtration mask (such as an N95, KN95, KF94, or well-fitted surgical mask) at all times while in the space. 

EAG's governing Council voted on November 21, 2022 to extend our current Covid protocols through February 28, 2023.
They will review our protocols in late January and again in late February. 
​
Everyone entering Guild Hall must:

Be Fully Vaccinated. 
Everyone entering Guild Hall must be fully vaccinated with an FDA or WHO authorized Covid-19 vaccine. 
According to the CDC, you are considered fully vaccinated for Covid-19 two weeks (14 days) after you have received a second dose in a two-dose vaccine series or two weeks (14 days) after you have received a single-dose vaccine. For more information on booster eligibility, please visit the CDC's website:  https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/booster-shot.html. 

EAG will not accept a negative Covid test or proof of prior infection in lieu of proof of vaccination. EAG cannot make any medical or religious exemptions to the above requirements.

Provide In-Person Verification of Vaccination.
Prior to entering Guild Hall, everyone must show proof of vaccination to EAG staff using your
CDC Vaccination Card, NYC Vaccination Record or other official immunization record, NYC COVID Safe App (Android | iOS), the MyChart App (Android | iOS), or Excelsior Pass. Photos, photocopies, and pictures saved on your phone are acceptable. 

In addition to proof of vaccination, everyone 18 years or older must also present a government-issued photo ID such as a driver’s license or passport. Everyone younger than 18 may use a government-issued photo ID or school photo ID. Photo IDs must show the individual's name and date of birth. Photos, photocopies, and pictures saved on your phone are acceptable.

Wear a Well-Fitted, High-Filtration Face Mask.
In light of the updates to recommendations on face masks, wearing a well-fitted, high-filtration face mask while in Guild Hall will now be required. This means everyone entering Guild Hall must be wearing a well-fitted surgical mask or better, such as a KN95, N95, or KF94 mask, over both their nose and mouth. Performers on stage during a rehearsal or performance will be allowed to work without a mask when necessary but all other personnel and the audience must be masked at all times.


For more information on the types of masks and proper mask fit, please visit the CDC's website:   https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/types-of-masks.html.

Stay Home If You Are Sick.
By entering Guild Hall, you are agreeing that you are not sick or exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19. If you are a ticketholder for an event in Guild Hall and you are ill, please contact that event’s organizer if you want to discuss rescheduling or refunding your ticket. For EAG produced events, please email office@actorsguild.org or 212-685-2927.

Please be advised that we are unable to make any exceptions to the above requirements.
 
Capacity: 
As a fully vaccinated facility, we will be operating at full capacity for EAG events and rentals (a maximum of 65 people).

HVAC Improvements:
We have contracted with HVAC specialists, installed a commercial-grade HEPA unit, upgraded our existing mini split-system a/c units to add upper room UV disinfecting lights and an EPA registered disinfectant on the coils, and have installed a CO2 monitor.

Cleaning and Disinfection:
Frequently touched surfaces, such as handrails, doorknobs, and light switches will be disinfected throughout the day. Shared tools, equipment, and workspaces will be cleaned and disinfected prior to sharing. Common areas, like the bathroom and kitchenette, will cleaned and disinfected at least daily. Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the space.
