Private Events

Hold your next private function in the midst of outstanding contemporary art!

Corporate and Social Events

The Museum of Contemporary Art Arlington makes a unique backdrop for a variety of events, including corporate meetings, client events, cocktail receptions, private dinners, small weddings, retirement celebrations, memorial services, and birthday parties. We welcome events for groups of 10 to 200 guests.

Before the museum occupied it, our building served as a local elementary school, and is now listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Thanks to its illustrious reputation and buzzing location, the museum is the perfect venue for special events. Adorning our main event space, the Tiffany Gallery, are Louis Comfort Tiffany Studio windows. These beautiful stained-glass panels, part of Arlington County’s Public Art Collection, create a beautiful atmosphere for intimate events. The Meyer, Smith, and Chairmen’s Galleries feature changing exhibitions of contemporary art, encouraging mingling and dialogue among guests.

Outside caterers are permitted to use our kitchen with access to a refrigerator and microwave. Chairs and tables are available for use with parties of 75 or less guests. The Tiffany Gallery also holds a large projection screen and wifi access.
