Update

As of March 1, 2022, it is no longer necessary to show proof of vaccination when coming to the Atelier. However, we ask that members and others who come to use the space keep an appropriate distance and when this is not possible, masks are required. It is also required when moving around the Atelier.

——————————————-

In compliance with Saint Paul University and Public Health Ontario, anyone who intends on coming to The Atelier must be fully vaccinated as of October 4th, 2021. Fully vaccinated means it has been 14 days or more since your final dose of a one-dose or two-dose vaccine series. For our friends that require accommodations for medical reasons in accordance with the Ontario Human Rights Code, please contact the Atelier directly.

When at the Atelier, we expect patrons to comply with basic safety measures such as maintaining physical distancing, practicing good hand-hygiene, and wearing a mask. Patrons can remove their masks when they are eating or when they’re seated behind a plexiglass.
Upon entering the Atelier, we require you to complete a digital COVID-19 screening using the QR codes posted at both entrances. We record all responses and review them daily.
Members, students, tenants, and staff of the Atelier are required to submit proof of vaccination using our Vaccination Declaration Tool (see below).
After using a workstation or conference room, we require that patrons use the disinfectant spray and paper towels provided to them to sanitize the space and any equipment used.
