Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, holidays are going to be spent differently, especially for Americans who will be celebrating Thanksgiving. However, the White House is set to plan holiday events indoors even as public health officials have strongly advised Americans to avoid gatherings to slow down the spread of the virus.
First lady Melania Trump and her husband Donald Trump, have already been confirmed to spend their Thanksgiving at the White House this year compared to the previous years. A few days after the Thanksgiving holiday, Melania will be holding a reception indoors at the White House on November 30. The events come as public health officials have advised Americans against holding gatherings or celebrations in order to slow the spread of COVID-19.
The latest White House event also comes as many individuals within the Administration, including Melania and her husband themselves, have tested positive for coronavirus the past several months. Their diagnosis came as a result of events held at the White House. However, Melania’s spokesperson Stephanie Grisham has said that safety precautions are going to be exercised at this holiday event to make it safe for everyone, especially the attendees.
“Guests will enjoy food individually plated by chefs at plexiglass-protected food stations. All passed beverages will be covered,” said Grisham in a statement. “Attending the parties will be a very personal choice. It is a longstanding tradition for people to visit and enjoy the cheer and decor of the annual White House Christmas celebrations.”
Aside from planning the upcoming White House holiday parties, Melania has also unveiled a sculpture installation at the White House Rose Garden on Friday last week. The sculpture is called “Floor Frame” by Asian American artist Isamu Noguchi and was gifted to the White House by the White House Historical Association back in March. The sculpture could be seen at the east terrace of the Rose Garden.
“Floor Frame,” made in 1962 and now exhibited in the White House, would make Noguchi the first Asian American artist whose work was displayed at the executive residence. Melania said in a statement that the sculpture installation would showcase the country’s diversity and the contributions of Asian Americans to the country.
