Walt Disney Family Museum will remain closed as employee tested positive for Coronavirus

An update has been released on the closure of the Walt Disney Family Museum.

The museum has been notified that the employee whose relative tested positive for COVID-19 has now also tested positive for COVID-19. The employee is currently quarantined at home and doing well, but will not return to work until cleared to do so by medical officials. The museum has no other confirmed cases at this time and is in close communication with its employees. Additionally, the public health officials are helping to ensure that any other individuals who may have been exposed to this employee are notified as soon as possible.

The museum took a proactive approach to this developing situation, closing on Friday, March 6. The museum has conducted a complete and thorough cleaning and sanitization using hospital-grade products, both in publicly and non-publicly accessible spaces.

Although a Department of Public Health representative has cleared the museum to reopen, we have decided to keep the museum closed until March 20, in line with Mayor Breed’s two-week precautionary period outlined in her March 6, 2020 guidance. In advance of our reopening, we have installed additional sanitation stations and increased our health and safety protocols, as advised by the CDC, World Health Organization, and other organizations and medical professionals.

We apologize that this closure will impact our members and guests with plans to visit us during this period. We deeply thank you for your patience during this time. Our team is available to answer any questions you may have. Please email visitor-update@wdfmuseum.org with any inquiries and get updates at waltdisney.org/visitor-update.
