The Fernbank Café
© James E. Fitts
Located adjacent to the Great Hall, The Fernbank Café provides an enclosed, intimate setting. An elegantly modern room, the space features a baby grand Steinway piano, white columns, a panoramic window view into the surrounding woodlands, and artistically-designed bentwood tables and chairs crafted by renowned architect Frank Gehry. The Fernbank Café provides various options to meet your event needs. Elegant draping can create a pre-function staging area for cocktail hour or an intimate event space. We also provide you with the option of using either the Frank Gehry furnishings or the Museum’s special event tables and chairs. Rental of The Fernbank Café includes use of the Lobby and Terrace (Saturday – Thursday evenings).
