The Metropolitan Museum of Art announced the news on Tuesday:
Author:FashionistaUpdated:May 19, 2020Original:Mar 16, 2020The Met Gala is usually fashion's biggest night of the year, but 2020 is increasingly proving itself to be anything but a normal year. On Monday, Vogue and the Metropolitan Museum of Art announced that they would be postponing this year's highly-anticipated event and the exhibit it would celebrate indefinitely.
The news follows the museum's announcement that it will be closing temporarily, starting on March 13, for an indefinite period of time. Though President and CEO of the Museum Daniel H. Weiss noted in a release that "we don't have any confirmed cases [of COVID-19] connected to the Museum," the New York Times reported that two museum employees were showing symptoms at the time of the announcement.
Prior to this, the Museum has closed on only two other occasions: post-9/11 and post-superstorm Sandy.
