Face-coverings and social distancing will be required, and visitors will need to check in at the table outside of the Gallery Shop when they arrive.

Attendees must register for the event by Oct. 1 at 12 p.m., so the center is able to have a record of who attends and to prepare appropriately for the amount of visitors.

References to the melting clocks in his most famous painting, The Persistence of Memory, have cropped up on everything from The Simpsons to news coverage of the 2015 New England Patriots's Deflategate scandal. His distinctive personal style is now so iconic that he has become a Halloween costume—one instantly recognizable by mustache al one .
