Make Your Next Event a Masterpiece at The Arts Center
Perched in the middle of 100 pristine acres, the Southern Vermont Arts Center's historic 1917 Georgian Revival mansion, Yester House Gallery, is arguably the finest venue for private events in the tri-state area of southern Vermont, New York, and northwestern Massachusetts.
And why wouldn't it be? The mansion was built, very literally, to host parties. The adjacent Arkell Pavilion is a 400 seat, state-of-the-art performance space while the multi-tiered foyer of the Elizabeth de C. Wilson Museum offers a striking contemporary gathering space. Accommodating events from 6 to 600, all three venues are available for your pleasure.
Our multiple venues are available to host events such as corporate picnics, cocktail parties, executive retreats, holiday employee parties, seminars, meetings, childrens' parties and more. Our spaces are flexible enough to accommodate any and all needs for your functions. We even offer custom exhibitions from our wonderful permanent collection to set the backdrop for your event, including our newest acquisition of George Kalinsky's photographs from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
