The Jane and Harry Willson Auditorium, located on the Albany Museum of Art’s first floor, is ideally suited for various events, including corporate meetings, wedding receptions, birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, or any other special event.

Amenities include a huge catering kitchen, a complete sound system, a large 12' x 9' screen and projector for business presentations, and tables and chairs in various shapes and sizes. Allow the exquisite artwork in our six galleries to be a backdrop for your reception or corporate event during the holidays. Enhance your event with the rental of the museum grounds, the lobby area, and dance the night away.
