Host your next meeting, reception, or event at the Wexner Center for the Arts.
Since opening in 1989, the Wexner Center has attracted international acclaim for its innovative architecture and well-equipped facilities, as well as its bold artistic programs. Designed by architects Peter Eisenman and Richard Trott, the Wexner Center building houses four exhibition galleries; a Film/Video Theater; a versatile "black box" Performance Space; and Mershon Auditorium, immediately adjacent to the Wexner Center building. Choose from any one of these spaces for your next event.
