The health and safety of our patrons, artists, volunteers, and staff is a high priority, linked to SummerWorks’ core value of Care. We will continue to refer to government and public health resources to update this policy in the future as appropriate.
Communicable Disease Prevention
SummerWorks defines “communicable diseases” as illnesses that are transmitted through close person-to-person contact, and are known to spread easily in group settings. These may include COVID-19, influenza, Mpox, norovirus, or other unknown infections that may be identified by local Public Health as epidemics or illnesses of concern. SummerWorks has placed the value of care at the centre of this policy, which includes recognition that community and individual risk tolerance, related to COVID-19 and other communicable diseases, is varied and nuanced.
As a matter of care and respect to SummerWorks’ artists and audiences, please do not attend any Festival event or activity if you are experiencing flu or COVID-19 symptoms, or if you are feeling unwell.
