CATERING: As we procure new long-term catering plans, we are offering rental clients through calendar year 2024 the option to use a licensed caterer for their choice as long as the caterer agrees to our policies, terms, and procedures. Please contact the Venue Rental Office to learn more. It is not possible to bring in your own food or beverages. The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library & Museum is a world-class library and museum in downtown Springfield, Illinois, that offers an array of visually beautiful venues perfect for any event. Whether it's a small meeting or a large reception, our staff strives to make sure you are provided with the utmost customer service. Imagine your event -- business meeting, conference, educational seminar, dinner, award banquet, wedding reception, and more -- and we can help you make your event or meeting memorable at the Museum or Library. We would like to work with you on your upcoming event. Please contact us and let us describe our daytime or evening event venues and the event enhancements that may be added to elevate your event experience. Thank you for your consideration!
