Dumbarton House
provides an intimate, historic setting for events ranging from small
corporate meetings, luncheons or conferences, to elegant wedding
receptions, rehearsal dinners or teas. The museum rooms of the house
are always open at events, providing your guests with a unique opportunity
for casual touring of the museum.
While rental
for events allows you use of the entire building and grounds, dinners
and receptions are generally held in the Belle Vue Room and our
outdoor gardens and terraces. The Belle Vue Room is an elegant modern
banquet space with light wood-paneled floors, walls paneled in pale
yellow fabric, and thirteen foot white coffered ceilings. The banquet
space is also adjoined by a beautiful courtyard area that can be
tented to provide additional dining space.
All rental requests
are contingent upon the availability of the premises, scheduling,
staffing needs, and the nature of the event itself (see Guidelines).
To inquire about holding an event at Dumbarton House, please fill
out and submit an online Rental Inquiry
Form, and our staff will be in touch with you as soon as possible.
Although the information on this Web site gives you a good sense
of the premises, all renters are required to visit Dumbarton House
by appointment before reserving a date. To schedule a visit with
the Marketing and Events Manager, if one is not already scheduled
from submitting an online Rental
Inquiry Form, please send an e-mail to events@dumbartonhouse.org
or call 202-337-2288, extension 230.
