ALBANY The Albany Institute of History of Art will be closed for almost three weeks, starting Thursday.
Noting that rising COVID-19 cases locally prompted Albany County Executive Dan McCoy earlier this week to urge people to stay at home except for essential activities and request that businesses allow employees to work remotely when possible, museum officials chose to close to the public, with an expected reopening of Jan. 27.
