"We are delighted to welcome visitors back to the iconic Getty Center, one of Los Angeles' most visited cultural destinations," said Timothy Potts, director of the J. Paul Getty Museum.

To meet COVID-19 restrictions, free advance reservations will be required, with a limited number of spots being offered each day. Some galleries that are too small to allow for social distancing will remain closed, and one-way pathways will be established in galleries and gardens. The Getty Library will remain closed.
Visitors and staff will be required to wear face coverings and maintain social distance, and all visitors will have their temperatures checked upon arrival. Anyone displaying symptoms such as coughing, sneezing or fever will be denied admittance.
According to Getty officials, in addition to "Lucretia," other new exhibitions on display include "Photo Flux: Unshuttering LA"; "Power, Justice and Tyranny in the Middle Ages"; "Artist as Collectors"; and "Silk & Swan Feathers: A Luxurious 18th-Century Armchair."
