Lincoln Heritage Museum will allow up to 24 visitors
viewing its exhibits at one time and guided group tour numbers have
been reduced, per Illinois guidelines. The Immersion Tour will take
guests 75 minutes to complete and is limited to 12 people per tour.
Guests are encouraged to call ahead to schedule due to capacity
limits and social distancing guidelines.
In line with Lincoln College’s requirements and State guidelines,
the Lincoln Heritage Museum will require face coverings for Museum
staff, volunteers, and guests at all times.
Similarly, increased cleaning and sanitation practices have been
adopted by Museum and College staff to reduce the likelihood of
spreading illness. Other modifications to the Museum include hand
sanitation stations, social distancing signage, protective shields
at desks, and signage displaying new requirements and best
practices.

Personal accountability is key to keeping the campus and
surrounding community healthy, therefore, Museum guests should complete a
self-health screening prior to their visit and take their temperature within two
hours of arriving to campus. Guests should re-schedule their visit if exhibiting
any symptoms of COVID-19 or other illnesses.
In conjunction with public health partners, Lincoln Heritage Museum will monitor
the prevalence of coronavirus within Logan County and continue to adjust
operations accordingly to protect the campus community. Policies may continue to
be adapted and amended as conditions change.
