Break barriers in the arts.

The arts bring joy, passion, entertainment, education, enrichment, and make up an important part of society. The arts are for everyone, from different backgrounds, ages, and cultures. Both the audience and performers deserve to enjoy the arts without restriction.

The ClearMask™ Transparent Surgical Mask enables everyone to fully participate in the arts, from a legendary conductor leading their symphony orchestra to a talented group of theater students showcasing their school’s musical. The masks provide full facial expressions and visual cues to convey emotion, feeling, and passion.

Elevates the connection in music

“As an orchestra conductor, non-verbal communication is paramount to being able to lead and inspire musicians during a performance, and that includes using facial expression. The ClearMask™ Transparent Surgical Mask offers the ability for conductors to communicate most effectively, while maintaining a safe environment. I’m grateful to have this comfortable and effective face mask as an alternative when masks are necessary.” - Tito Muñoz, Music Director of the Phoenix Symphony

Supports actors to perform at their fullest

“The ClearMask™ Transparent Surgical Masks truly saved the day (and not to mention morale) of our talented children’s theater group, where ‘every child deserves a chance to shine.’ In fact, the masks saved our business! Our actors are able to continue performing at their fullest and show their facial expressions, while remaining safe and protected.” - Musical Theater Academy of Orange County

Increases positive interactions with children

“So glad to finally find the ClearMask™ Transparent Surgical Mask that actually works! Getting children, toddlers, and siblings to smile without seeing my face and expressions has been a really surprising challenge to this whole ‘business during COVID-19’ thing. And an added bonus - our hard of hearing child LOVES being able to still see our faces and what we are saying!” - Christie Gare Photography

Is the ClearMask™ a face shield?

No, the ClearMask™ brand produces transparent surgical masks and transparent face masks, which offer distinctly different protection than transparent face shields. The CDC does not recommend using face shields or goggles as a substitute for masks. For more information about the differences between surgical masks, face masks, and face shields, please view the CDC guidelines. The ClearMask™ brand does not make transparent face shields, only transparent surgical masks and transparent face masks that cover the wearer’s mouth and nose when worn properly.
