- Masks are recommended for those who are unvaccinated, immunocompromised, or at high-risk for complications associated with COVID-19.
- People may choose to mask at any time.

Virtual Classes
Participation in FilmNorth online classes requires use of the free Zoom cloud-based video conferencing service.
