The Spencer Mansion of the AGGV can accommodate a range of special events including meetings, seminars, cocktail parties, receptions, and formal dinners. The AGGV hosts over 40 external functions annually and is a professional and one-of-a-kind facility to hold significant events! Plus, your fees go directly towards exhibitions and programming at the Gallery and in your community.

With the option to rent the entire main floor of the mansion as well as the exhibition spaces, the Gallery is the perfect backdrop for your memories. With enough room to comfortably accommodate up to 80 people for a sit-down event and 150 for a cocktail reception, our unique space will make your event one to remember!
