Temporary Closure

The Rothko Chapel and Suzanne Deal Booth Welcome House are currently closed due to COVID-19. 

To ensure the safety of our visitors, staff, and volunteers, the Chapel and Welcome House are currently closed to the public. We anticipate reopening to the public on a limited basis when it is safe to do so. Admission will be managed by free, timed-tickets. Check back here for more information in the coming weeks.

As we prepare to welcome our visitors back to the Chapel and new Welcome House, we recognize that each of us plays a critical role in creating a safe and healthy environment. We are thoughtfully creating health and safety guidelines and practices based on recommendations by the CDC, local, and state governments that will help to ensure a safe space for all. Visit the health and safety page for more information.
