COVID-19 policy
The Brass Chamber Music Workshop (BCMW) will follow Cal Poly Humboldt policy for COVID-19 management for campus visitors. Currently this means that all workshop attendees and staff will provide, at time of arrival, either proof of COVID vaccination including at least one booster, OR proof of a negative COVID test within the previous 72 hours.
For those needing proof of a negative COVID test, testing will need to be repeated every 72 hours while on campus. Proof of negative test can be satisfied by a photo with date stamp of a negative rapid antigen test. Further details of the Cal Poly Humboldt COVID policy for visitors can be found here.
BCMW may require more extensive COVID testing by all participants if epidemiologic circumstances (such as a major surge in COVID cases) indicate this need as the workshop approaches.
