Coronavirus: New York museums, galleries to reopen from August 24

NEW YORK - New York's museums, art galleries and other cultural institutions will be allowed to reopen starting Aug 24, state governor Andrew Cuomo said on Friday after a five-month shutdown due to the coronavirus.

The reopening does not include performing arts venues, which will remain shut until the end of the year. "After nearly six months, The Met's reopening will be a historic moment for the Museum and the City," Met president Daniel Weiss said in a statement. The Whitney Museum of American Art will reopen on Sept 3 but the Museum of Modern Art has yet to announce its reopening date.
