An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and, in extreme cases, death.  By visiting Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure (the “Exhibition”), I voluntarily assume the risk for myself, minors in my custody, and those I am purchasing tickets on behalf of, and understand that we may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by entering.

The Exhibition organizers have taken enhanced health and safety measures, including but not limited to checking that attendees are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 before entering. However, it cannot guarantee that I or members of my group will not be exposed to COVID-19 while at the Exhibition, and I acknowledge that by visiting the Exhibition I may be increasing my risk of contracting COVID-19.

The cooperation and participation of visitors in following health and safety protocols and requirements are essential to better ensure that all within the venue remain healthy and safe. I acknowledge and agree to adhere, and to cause all members of my group (including children) to adhere, to the Exhibition code of conduct, including but not limited to (i) showing evidence of vaccination upon request; and (ii) wearing a mask at all times while indoors, and that my (or any members of my group’s) noncompliance may result in my and/or my group’s immediate removal from the Exhibition.

I HEREBY WAIVE, RELEASE, DISCHARGE, COVENANT NOT TO SUE AND HOLD HARMLESS Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure’s organizers (including, but not limited to, the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat, JLJ Productions, LLC, Peek), volunteers, students, employees, contractors, agents, officers and trustees for/from any claims or demands related to any exposure I or any member of my party may have to COVID-19 as a result of visiting the Exhibition, whether or not it arises through the negligence, omission, default or other action of anyone affiliated with the Exhibition, including other visitors.

Please note, ticket purchasers will receive email and text message correspondence from Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure.
