As of February 28, masks are no longer required in City of Laurel buildings, including the Laurel Museum. However, the safety of our visitors, staff, and volunteers remain a top priority and as such, we continue to encourage the wearing of masks while inside the museum building. We will continue to offer a supply of masks to visitors and volunteers, in addition to hand sanitizers. We want everyone to be safe and have fun at the Museum.
