Create your own affair to remember. The Bakersfield Museum of Art provides a unique setting for any occasion. Your special event can be surrounded by local, national, and world-renowned art when you book inside our banquet room or outside in the Museum’s lush gardens. The Museum’s banquet room is available for corporate events and private parties, and can be transformed beautifully for any occasion. With a capacity of 175, it is a fantastic host to events of all kinds, including birthday parties and wedding receptions. With something always in bloom, the garden is the perfect place for outdoor events. The Museum has been the venue for numerous fundraising events, receptions, and weddings. Even when the valley reaches a hundred degrees, there is always a patch of shade under the garden’s sycamores, pines, and ash trees.
