COVID-19 Updates

As we go through these difficult times, we first want to express our sincere wishes that you and yours are in the best of health, and remain so.

All visitors must follow the CDC guidelines:

wearing a mask at all times while you are in the building
washing your hands & using hand sanitizer
signing in our log
temperature check.

We will resume business as soon as it is safe and hopefully our temporary postponement along with most other businesses will have successfully reduced the spread of the virus to a manageable level. We ask for your patience, understanding and support while we get through this as a community. We are a small business/Non-Profit directly affected by this current situation and we are doing our best to make it through this difficult time. We promise you will be the first to know when we have an update. In the meantime, our offices will be closed until further notice with limited administrative capacity. We very much look forward to seeing everyone when this is over!

Thank you in advance of your full cooperation during these trying times. If you have any questions, please email Renee at rwashington@meltoncenter.org or Ken Winston kennethwinston1@comcast.net.

Please stay safe and well,
Sincerely, Charles A. Melton Arts & Education Center
