COVID-19 Policies to Ensure Community Safety and Physical Distancing

The following information was last updated on May 30, 2023.

  •  reDiscover Center is open only for scheduled events, appointments, registered programs, and private bookings.
    • Materials sales are available seven days a week. Email mail@rediscovercenter.org to schedule a weekday or  weekend appointment.
    • Donations will be accepted on a case-by-case basis. Email mail@rediscovercenter.org with information and photographs with what you would like to donate. Please do not drop by without contacting us first. Thank you for your donations!
  • All in-person programming will operate according to LA County DPH guidelines.
    • In-person programs will have limited capacity based on space and staff requirements.
    • Masking indoors is recommended for campers and visitors, and staff. Bandanas or gaiters are not permitted as an alternative unless the physician has advised against wearing a mask. Per updated LACDPH guidelines, close fitting non-cloth masks are strongly recommended. Non-cloth masks are available free of charge.
    • All reDiscover staff and volunteers are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or submit weekly negative PCR test results.
    • All visitors who are eligible for vaccinations are highly encouraged to get vaccinated.
    • We will not be providing food for participants.
    • Anyone who has a temperature over 100.1 or who has symptoms of any illness (cough, difficulty breathing, sniffling, etc) will not be allowed in the building and should be kept home. Any student who develops symptoms of illness while at reDiscover will be immediately isolated and will need to be picked up as soon as possible.
    • Everyone is encouraged to wash or sanitize their hands frequently, including when they first enter the building, after using the bathroom, and before and after eating.
    • All knobs, handles, and shared surfaces will be disinfected regularly throughout the day.
    • reDiscover provides paid sick leave for all staff, who are expected to stay home if they are not feeling well.
    • If you have any additional questions about our COVID-19 policies, please contact us.
  • Our Tinkering Toolkit, which includes our favorite tools and a selection of materials, is the perfect platform for home-based making that transforms cardboard and other recyclables into robust creative projects.
