Don’t come in sick.
For the health and safety of our visitors and teammates, please stay home if you are not feeling well.
Masks are optional for all visitors.
Patrons of the Film Center are not required to wear masks when visiting the Center.
Wash hands.
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water for 20 seconds, and dry completely with a disposable towel or air dryer. Hand sanitizer stations are also placed throughout the Center at entrances, exits, and where transactions take place.
Online Admissions.
We recommend purchasing advance tickets when possible. This improves speed of service and limits unnecessary contact.
Cleaning Procedures.
We have updated our cleaning procedures to include new standards for mitigating the spread of viruses. We have installed MERV-13 filters in our HVAC system to adhere to The Ohio State University’s updated guidelines for classroom health and safety. Our vacuum cleaners are equipped with HEPA filters. We have increased the frequency of cleaning and disinfecting high-touch surfaces, including door handles, handrails, water fountains, condiment stations, and countertops. ________________________________________________________________________________
