COVID Protocol

Please contact Laura McBryde in the Crealdé office if you are exposed to someone with a positive case of COVID or test positive for COVID yourself. You can reach her by phone at 407-671-1886 or by e-mail at lmcbryde@crealde.org.

Crealdé will contact students as soon as possible if they have been in contact within the last 2 days (48 hours) with:
A student or instructor that has tested positive for COVID.
A student or instructor that has been exposed to someone that has tested positive for COVID.
A student or instructor that is showing symptoms of COVID

Crealdé is adhering to the following CDC guidelines for positive COVID tests and COVID exposure.

If you have COVID-19 symptoms or you test positive for COVID – 

You can return to campus/class after:
5 days of quarantine* from the Crealdé campus.
24 hours with no fever without the use of fever-reducing medications and
a mask is worn in our studios, office and galleries after you return to campus/class for the remaining time until you reach 10 days since symptoms began or your positive test.

If you have been exposed to COVID –
Wear a mask as soon as you find out you were exposed for 10 days. Day 0 is the day of exposure. You can develop COVID for 10 days after exposure.

If you have traveled by air –
In an abundance of caution for the safety our staff and students, Crealdé requests
that you wear a mask indoors for 5 days after you have been traveling by air.

*CDC Guidelines for Calculating Quarantine
The date of your exposure, your symptoms developed, or a positive test is considered day 0. Day 1 is the first full day after your last contact with a person who has had COVID-19, your symptoms developed or you tested positive. Stay home and away from other people for at least 5 days. 

*Staff/Volunteers/Fellows/Studio Artists will follow the same guidelines as Students/Instructors.
