Starting Saturday, visitors will again be able to wander through the National Gallery of Art’s Sculpture Garden. The 6.1-acre garden is home to 21 modern artworks by artists including Ellsworth Kelly, Magdalena Abakanowicz and Roy Lichtenstein.

The reopening marks one of the first signs of life among the museums and Smithsonian institutions that line the National Mall, all of which have been closed to visitors since mid-March.

The garden will operate with reduced hours (11 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and with a limited capacity of 271. All visitors ages 2 and up will be required to wear face masks. There will be one entrance gate and one exit gate.

The Pavilion Cafe, located inside the garden, will be open for outdoor seating and have restrooms available. It will only sell prepackaged sandwiches, salads and drinks.

“I find great relief in being able to welcome our visitors back to the Gallery by way of our oasis-like Sculpture Garden,” National Gallery director Kaywin Feldman said in a statement. “Our horticulture division has been hard at work maintaining the grounds during the closure — albeit at a safe social distance on a modified schedule — and it really looks quite beautiful.”

Jazz in the Garden, the popular concert series on summer Fridays, will not be restarting at this time.

Museum officials also released details on how they eventually plan to reopen the museum’s East and West buildings. First, the museum will reopen the ground floor of the West Building when D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser gives the green light for Phase 2 of the city’s reopening.

Two special exhibitions will reopen at that time: Degas at the Opéra (extended through Oct. 12) and True to Nature: Open-Air Painting in Europe, 1780–1870 (extended through Nov. 29).

Visitors will be required to wear face coverings and reserve free timed entry passes to enter the museum, similar to the system already in place at the National Museum of African American History and Culture. Timed entry will help with crowd control and facilitate contact tracing, officials say.

The rest of the West building will reopen during Phase 3. The East Building is undergoing a major roof renovation and is not yet included in the reopening plan.

The roof project started two weeks ago when crews carefully lowered the 920-pound Alexander Calder mobile down from the ceiling, the Washington Post reported. The mobile will be cleaned and returned to the atrium by the end of 2021.
