Rotunda
Frank Lloyd Wright’s modernist design of the museum building is one of the greatest works in the collection. The landmark building provides several unequaled and dramatic spaces for corporate events including the spacious rotunda floor and the famous quarter-mile spiral ramp winding up to the seventh floor, directly beneath the magnificently restored skylight.
Capacity: 1,000 for reception / 300 for dinner. Occasionally, installations may limit the availability and capacity of certain museum spaces.
