After the mayor's and City Council's mask mandate went into effect, Wichitans were required to wear masks in all public indoor spaces, like this west Wichita bank. These photos reflect how this particular business adapted to the new mandate, requiring its customers to don a protective mask or face covering upon entering the building, or use the drive thru service should they lack one. Virtually unseen prior to the pandemic, masks became an integral mitigation tool during the pandemic that caused both minor and major changes to the look and conduct of everyday life.
