Event Rooms

Indoor venues at the Arboretum are as delightful and memorable as our gardens. They are all located in an exceptional facility, the Ruby C. McSwain Education Center. Event spaces are available for both large and small events and there are a wide variety of room setup options. Each event space opens directly outside onto the beautiful south terrace and large windows provide a stunning view year-round. There is an additional fee required for the exclusive use of the south terrace. A hallway outside the event rooms is available for your registration or catering setups. Food and catering is permitted in all indoor areas and on the south terrace. A staging kitchen is available only when the York Auditorium or Event Room 109 is rented. And as always, the Arboretum staff will work closely with clients to make every event go seamlessly.

Tables and chairs
