ReopeningJune 25, 2020
The Dalí will reopen to the public July 1 with new hours and safety procedures
The Dalí Museum, home of an unparalleled collection of Salvador Dalí, located in St Petersburg, Florida, will reopen with new procedures in place designed to protect the health and safety of visitors, volunteers, members, and staff. The Museum will reopen to members only June 24-28 and to the public on July 1.
When the Museum reopens, two new exhibits will be on view. Dalí’s Sacred Science: Religion and Mysticism includes over 50 mixed media works that showcase Dalí’s own spiritual pursuit and the universal human aspiration to connect with a world beyond. At Home with Dalí features a photographic reveal of the personal life of Dalí and his wife Gala in their homeland of Spain from five photographers.
The Dalí will be open Wednesday through Sunday from 11 a.m.-6 p.m., with special hours for seniors on Wednesday and Thursday 10-11 a.m. The Museum will stay open late until 8 p.m. Thursday and Friday and will offer half-price admission on Thursdays from 5-8 p.m. Healthcare workers receive free admission July 1-5 as a thanks for providing essential care in these trying times.
The Dalí will operate at a reduced visitor capacity for extra precaution. This will be facilitated by requiring advanced-purchase, timed tickets to enter the galleries. Physical distancing will also be directed with indicators for visitors to remain 6’ apart throughout the Museum. Temperature checks using a thermal camera will be instituted for all staff and visitors; anyone displaying a temperature over 100.4°F will not be permitted entry at that time. Hand-sanitizer stations will be available throughout the building, and increased cleaning and disinfecting protocols have been implemented. Visitors and vendors will also be required to wear masks. Masks with a Dalí mustache will be available for purchase at reception and in the Store for $6.
