Elson S. Floyd Cultural Center

Rates

Due to the layout of space and kitchen use, we will be unable to concurrently schedule different events in the knowledge rooms and living room.  Additionally, use of the living room will automatically include all spaces within the facility, with the exception of the Commercial Kitchen. Charges will vary based on kitchen use.

Rates include basic audio/visual equipment, tables & chairs, and setup & takedown labor in event space; does not include tech labor during the reservation.
