Downtown museum cutting jobs and hours to combat COVID impact
SAN ANTONIO Editors note: This story was published through a partnership between the San Antonio Business Journal and KSAT. The Briscoe Western Art Museum has laid off eight staff members and eliminated three other vacant positions. It's also made other operation changes to offset the drop in business caused by Covid-19. It reopened in late May at 25% capacity, but a surge in Covid cases in Bexar County has continued to affect the city's visitor industry. Read more on this story at the San Antonio Business Journal.
