Health and Safety Commitment

ORS is dedicated to creating a safe environment for our singers, patrons, volunteers, contractors/vendors, and staff during in-person rehearsals, performances, and events.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve and be a presence in our community, we will periodically update and review our policy. 


ORS Covid Policy (effective July 1, 2022) 

  • ORS will adhere to, at minimum, current Federal, Oregon Health Authority, and Multnomah County Guidelines regarding masks, vaccinations and distancing. 

  • Patrons may be required to wear masks, show proof of vaccination or negative test, and/or distance depending on the regulations at the time of performance. 

  • ORS will adhere to venue policies for all rehearsal and performance spaces. See below to reference the current policies of the venues we utilize regularly. 

  • ORS reserves the right to require masks and social distancing and update/modify the policy at any time to implement stricter standards. 


Other

An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. COVID-19, and its variants, are extremely contagious diseases that can lead to severe illness and death. Anyone attending an Oregon Repertory Singers rehearsal or concert voluntarily assumes all risk associated with exposure to COVID-19 and agrees to abide by all policies as well as posted and/or verbal direction by Oregon Repertory Singers staff, volunteers, and/or concert venue staff. Thank you for supporting Oregon Repertory Singers and for helping to keep each other healthy and safe.
