Yesterday, we told you about Milwaukee Art Museum’s decision to close until early next year as a response to the ever-worsening COVID-19 crisis. Today, another beloved Milwaukee museum and tourist attraction has announced similar plans.
Citing the COVID-19 pandemic, Harley-Davidson Museum will close its doors effective immediately and will remain closed to the public until “at least January 3, 2021.” Here’s the press release.
Harley-Davidson Museum to Temporarily Close Starting Friday, November 20
The H-D Museum will remain closed to the public until at least January 3, 2021MILWAUKEE, USA (Nov. 20, 2020) – The Harley-Davidson Museum is announcing that beginning Friday, Nov. 20, 2020, the campus will be closed to the public until at least January 3, 2021. Additionally, the H-D Museum’s Holiday Weekend Sale originally scheduled for Nov. 27-29, will be postponed to a later date to be determined.

The H-D Museum website (H-DMuseum.com) and social channels will continue to connect with the community through virtual gallery talks, behind-the-scenes video vignettes and more engaging stories of innovation, perseverance and adventure. Additionally, enthusiasts are invited to visit The Shop online to purchase gifts.
MOTOR® Bar & Restaurant will also close beginning Friday, November 20, including carry-out and delivery operations, and will reopen when it’s deemed safe to do so.
