To Our Valued Patrons,
For over 49 years, Allied Arts has been committed to providing the best entertainment & service to our patrons. As we closely monitor the ongoing Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak, we are taking every precaution to ensure our top priority remains the health, safety, and well-being of our patrons and staff. This guides each and every decision we make.
We have and will continue to follow the guidelines of our local health departments, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the World Health Organization (WHO). As we stay current on this evolving situation, we want to assure you that the restaurants hosting our Eat for the Arts are taking the appropriate precautionary measures, such as:
Ensuring proper and rigorous cleaning and sanitization of shared surfaces and food preparation environments.
Ongoing staff training to enhance cleaning and disinfecting procedures to maintain a healthy environment for our guests and staff.
As always, instructing our staff to stay home if they are not feeling well.
Working closely with and adapting to the ongoing safety guidelines from our local health departments, CDC and WHO.
We will continue to respond and adapt as protocol changes to ensure the well-being of each other and our guests.
Colonial House Restaurant and Bar and Minervas Restaurant & Bar remain open and operational with appropriate measures to protect the health of the community. For our guests who are at home or at work, they are committed to serving you through their enhanced delivery & catering operations.
The Allied Arts thank you for your continuous support of the Arts and our local businesses during these trying times.
Sincerely,
The Allied Arts Family
