Planning an Event
Whether you are hosting a corporate cocktail reception throughout the entire museum, a holiday dinner in our Rotunda space, a wedding reception in the Lagoon area, a summer picnic on the front lawn, our on-site event planners will work with you on every detail.
Signature Events
Our event planning team has created themed signature events that highlight both our culinary skills and the Museum's ability to "wow" and inspire. When you host an event here, it's not necessary to invent a theme; there are plenty from which to choose.
