Update (2021-06-14): Philadelphia has lifted their Safer at Home Restrictions.

"""

This was made possible by the increased vaccination rates in the area.

Some businesses may still require patrons to wear masks indoors regardless of vaccination status, so be on the look-out for signs in store windows.

If you’re fully vaccinated, this means that you can start enjoying the air conditioning on your face. Unless a business is requiring mask use in their facility, and you’re not in one of the few places where they’re still required, you can go without one.

Unvaccinated folks are still at risk of getting COVID, getting sick, spreading it to their loved ones, being hospitalized, or even dying. That’s why they should keep wearing a mask and get vaccinated as soon as possible.

Get Vaccinated! It is safe, effective, and free.

At the Franklin Institute, we will be providing disposable masks, hand sanitizing stations, and individually wrapped bathroom supplies for guests who choose to use them.
