The well-being of its staff, patrons, and the public are the Arts Council’s top priority. Cancellations and postponements are precautionary measures taken to minimize exposure. By activating social distancing, the Arts Council removes one more opportunity for people in the community to be exposed. Please check the Arts Council’s Facebook pages (@yorkcountyarts and @uffyc) and websites (yorkcountyarts.org and underexposedfilmfestivalyc.org) for the most recent updates regarding scheduled events.

​

In light of the recent developments surrounding COVID-19 (2019 Novel Coronavirus), the Arts Council's offices and galleries are closed to the public beginning on Monday, March 16, and will remain closed until further notice. We are looking to the guidance and directives of local, state and federal officials to amend our plan as necessary. Many of our staff members will be working remotely. While there may be a staff member on-site at the Center for the Arts or at the Gettys Art Center during regular business hours, we ask that our patrons please conduct all business with the ACYC via email or phone as our offices are closed to the public.

 

The Arts Council's decision to close affects all ACYC events and facility rentals. Tickets will be refunded automatically, and the ACYC facility manager will be in touch regarding changes to any rentals that have been scheduled during this time.
