COVID-19 Policy
Miriam’s Kitchen strongly recommends that all guests attending the gala are up to date with their COVID-19 vaccinations and boosters, if eligible. COVID-19 vaccines remain the best public health measure to protect people from the virus, slow transmission, and reduce the likelihood of new variants emerging.
All attendees at events and gatherings should follow these infection prevention guidelines:
Do not come to an event if you are sick or have tested positive for COVID-19.
Do not come to an event if you have been advised to quarantine or isolate.
If you develop signs and symptoms of illness while at the event, please leave and seek medical assistance as appropriate.
Abide by the current mask guidelines.
Wash your hands frequently with soap and water. Use hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available. Hand sanitizer and extra face coverings must be made available for attendees at events.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
Cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing.
Miriam’s Kitchen cannot guarantee that all guests and employees at an event are fully vaccinated. No precautions can entirely eliminate the risk of exposure to COVID-19.
Please Note: These guidelines are subject to change depending on the most recent COVID health requirements at the time. Our event will be capped at 50% capacity of the venue space.
