Best venue ever for our 50th reunion! — An Eventective User from Mount Vernon, Il
Perfect venue, beautiful setting, helpful and efficient staff that were very accommodating to our needs. Highly recommend the museum’s performance center for memorable events.
Amazing Space — An Eventective User from Mt. Vernon, IL
I had the joy of renting the Mitchell House for a jewelry sale for my silversmithing business. It was a great turnout and all the ladies raved about how nice the event was, and I give all credit to the aesthetic of the house. The bright, airy, historical place is perfect for any gathering. Highly recommend!
