Masks, smaller audience: The Show Goes On As States Ease Restrictions

Screen Shot from PBS News Hour

Kate Maguire on PBS News Hour

For almost six months, the art world has been at a standstill as museums, galleries, and theaters have all been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But as some states begin to lift restrictions, the arts have also slowly started to return. In the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts, both art museums and live theater have started to make a comeback—with limitations.
