What we know about catering at The Dairy Arts Center

A Spice of Life has catered 5 events at The Dairy Arts Center since March 2024, corporate events first, with nonprofit and university events alongside. The busiest stretch for us here has been summer. Hannah is our Event Specialist for The Dairy Arts Center and knows the load-in, the kitchen, and the timing the room needs. The venue publishes capacity of 244 seated or 250 standing; we size service style to that, and a buffet or stations needs more floor than a plated dinner for the same count. Indoor and outdoor space both come into play, so the timeline carries a weather call and we stage food where it stays hot either way. Load-in: Boedecker cinema available Mondays, Tuesdays and around the film calendar; Carsen black box does not automatically include a technical director (freelance options available). Parking: Complimentary on-site lot plus street parking. Alcohol: Alcohol allowed; on-site bar referenced.

Event types we have run here: corporate events, nonprofit and university events.
