The Academy continues to monitor and adjust our health and safety measures as the course of the pandemic unfolds. The Academy requests that all attendees and guests are familiar with and agree to uphold the public safety measures laid out by the District of Columbia’s Health Department and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on masking, social distancing, travel, international travel, and testing. While masks are not currently required in DC, the Academy does encourage participants to wear them indoors.
