Rheanna B. booked a rehearsal dinner for 100 people
The Museum was PERFECT for our casual rehearsal dinner and party. The blank slate that the space offers allowed us to do whatever we wanted when it came to food, booze, and floor plan. Jean was extremely helpful and professional. I wouldn't change a thing!

Wow! What a fantastic space with an amazing staff to help you with everything you need. I would absolutely have another event there in a heartbeat. Thank you Jean, Shawna and Brandon too. You pulled out all the stops to make our Hamilton Families event a success and we are so grateful!!!!

Jean and the Museum were most welcoming and accommodating. They were very very gracious when we had to run a little late and were very pleasant to work with. The space is wonderful for an intimate event and the exhibits are well done and very interesting! Would absolutely recommend them.

Nicole B. booked an event for 2 people
The space was great and the staff was wonderful to work with. My only concern is with the neighborhood. Our guests were a bit weary of the area, and we think it affected attendance.

Great place with a soul. Ideal for a team offsite where you want people to change environments. Catering was good too and people lovely.

We had our company away day at the museum and had a very good experience! The space was perfect for team building and brainstorming. We could bring in extra chairs and move the furniture around giving us flexibility. There is also project facilities which was very useful. The museum staff were great and accommodating, helping us to set things up including arranging the catering and being of assistance the whole day. Everything was really easy to arrange and it was great to be in a space that was far more inspiring then a hotel conference room!
