The Cultural Center does not have a liquor license. If parties renting the facility plan to sell alcoholic beverages, they must make arrangements with a bartending service or caterer that supplies a TIPS trained bartender, liability insurance, and a one-day liquor license. Those who plan to give alcohol to their guests at no cost must hire the Center's bartenders to pour all alcoholic beverages.

Hours

Most events are scheduled to start no earlier than 8 am and end no later than 10:30 pm, with all activity completely concluded by 11 pm.

Price

Pricing is determined on a case-by-case basis that takes into account the type of event, duration, and other particulars.

In addition to our mission, we share our beautiful space with non-profit partners at a discounted rate through our Space-Sharing Program. We understand the importance of operating expenses, fundraising needs, and the impact of every dollar your organization works so hard to raise or earn. We will therefore make every attempt to provide your organization with the best venue and service while working with your budget.

Your discount will be shown on your rental agreement. As a colleague in this non-profit world, we ask that you recognize the Cultural Center as a partner at the appropriate sponsorship benefits/levels.

WEDDINGS

Memories of your wedding day will stay with you forever and will remain some of the most important of your life.

Make them even more special by hosting your wedding reception in a truly remarkable venue.The dedicated team at the Cultural Center will work closely with you to ensure that your day exceeds all expectations and everything you need is provided exactly how you need it. Let us make your day special.

Weddings start at a flat fee of $4,000. Additional services (rehearsals, special considerations not detailed above, etc.) may be subject to additional fees, to be determined during discussions and specified in the contract.

The price of a wedding includes access to the building from 9 am to 11 pm on the day of the event. We ask that the bar closes at 10 pm at the latest and that ALL guests depart the grounds by 11 pm.

Size

Attendance should not exceed 200. A band with a dance floor and/or buffet, for instance, will limit floor space and therefore the number of tables and chairs available to your guests. While the Great Hall serves as the centerpiece of the event, our ancillary galleries are available for the bar, dessert room, gift room, children’s room, and other activities.

Hosting your event at the Cultural Center provides a distinct blend of creative energy, historical charm, and culinary excellence—ensuring your celebration will be one that guests remember long after the last toast.

Bar Service

Most event planners engage a caterer or professional bartending service to handle the bar. Since there are several ways to manage this aspect of your event and special considerations for each of them, arrangements should be discussed during the planning stage and detailed in your contract.
