Dayton Art Institute to close temporarily due to rise in coronavirus cases

The Dayton Art Institute is closing until further notice due to an increase in coronavirus cases in Montgomery County and Ohio.

“Out of an abundance of caution, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily close the museum again,” Dayton Art Institute Director and CEO Michael R. Roediger said. “With the implementation of new state-wide restrictions this week and Montgomery County issuing a stay-at-home advisory, we felt it was a necessary step to take, in order to help safeguard the health of the community and our staff.”
