The Montgomery Ward Lecture Hall has been recently renovated with high-back cushioned seats for 150 guests, new carpeting, lighting, a permanent stage and state of the art technology. Located on the lower level of the Museum, this meeting space is perfect for seminars, lectures and more!

It is also conveniently located next to our marble West Lobby which can be used for registration, continental breakfasts and breaks. 

Pair with our classrooms for break-out space or our James Simpson Theatre as guest overflow.
