WARRINGTON’S Pyramid Arts Centre is to reopen, in line with the latest government advice and following a six month shut down due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Palmyra Square venue closed its doors in March as the pandemic shut down cultural venues across the country, including Warrington Museum and Art Gallery and Parr Hall.
As a result of the latest government guidance and a thorough safety evaluation, Pyramid is now preparing to reopen its doors on Monday (September 7) with a number of changes.
These include a reduced classes programme, which has been carefully scheduled to ensure customers and staff remain as safe and socially-distanced as possible, additional deep cleans and hand sanitising stations.
From Monday, Pyramid opening times will be 9am-9pm on Mondays and Tuesdays and 9am – 5pm Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
For the time being, the venue will remain closed on Saturdays and Wednesday evenings.
All programmed events are being examined on a case-by-case basis with regular updates being posted on Pyramid’s website and social media channels.
Parr Hall remains closed until further notice.
Chris Persoglio, venue and events manager for Pyramid and Parr Hall said: “Pyramid Arts Centre is the lifeblood of Warrington’s Cultural Quarter and has long been home to top-quality events, from live performances, to artists studios, unforgettable weddings and our thriving classes programme.
“Although we have a limited offer at present, we will continue to monitor government advice and work hard to reopen our full range of services as soon as possible.
“As always, please keep an eye on our website and social media channels for updates on individual events.”
