Governor DeWine Announces Additional

Reopening Guidelines

(COLUMBUS, Ohio)Ohio Governor Mike DeWine today announced that Ohio Department of Health Interim Director Lance Himes will be signing a reopening order for performance theaters in the near future, but details are still being worked on. However, to give arts organizations the opportunity to begin planning for performances, the order will say that interior venue attendance will be capped at the lesser of 15% of their fixed-seated capacity or 300 people, while outdoor venue attendance will be capped at the lesser of 15% of their fixed seating capacity or 1,500 people. Many of the other guidelines in the forthcoming order will align with the limits on spectators at sports venues in the Directors Order that Provides Mandatory Requirements for Youth, Collegiate, Amateur, Club and Professional Sports.
