Rental fees include security staff and free parking. Catering is exclusively handled by the museum and will be in addition to the rental fee. A $1,000, non-refundable deposit is required for all social events at the time of booking. If the total rental is less than $1,000 then the full rental balance is due as a deposit. All final catering and rental payments are due one week before the scheduled event.

Your Event Sales Coordinator can provide you with a list of recommended vendors that are familiar with CAM event protocol and meet our high standards of professionalism and dependability. You will be required to use our recommended audio and lighting vendors; however, you are not required to select your other vendors from this list. Florists not on the vendor list must be pre-approved to ensure the safety of the art at the museum. For further information on our recommendations, please consult your Event Sales Coordinator.
If the event ends later in the night, it is the sole responsibility of the renting party to make sure the extra materials are brought to the loading dock and can be picked up the next business day. If the event is during museum hours, all equipment and material must be cleared from the space the same day.
