This exquisite event locale accommodates 200 guests for a formal, seated dinner and up to 250 guests for a buffet style meal.

Perhaps one of the first institutional media theaters designed specifically for viewing archival images, this modern orientation facility is suited for both intimate lectures and special presentations. It is equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including a 65" high-definition plasma screen that allows for DVD and PowerPoint presentations, cable access, and a custom lectern that enables control of lighting permutations in the room in order to enhance the experience of viewing the archival material.

Overlooking the Steinberg Great Hall, and surrounded by beautiful and poignant exhibitions, the Selma L. Batkin Mezzanine is an elegant space for receptions or pre-dinner cocktails. The Mezzanine can comfortably host 100 guests.

Accommodating groups of 10 to 70 attendees, these three spaces are suitable for meetings, seminars, break-out sessions and lectures. These rooms also provide an intimate and quiet setting for luncheons or dinners.
