The Museum of Visual Materials is a private event venue. Plan your next event in our historical building built in 1887!
When we are not booked for an event, we occupy the space with low cost arts & crafts classes for the community.

The Museum of Visual Materials is the perfect place for weddings, corporate events, family gatherings and community events. The character of our facility will bring you the most unique and memorable event possible.

Do you need help lining up other services or would you like assistance brainstorming new and creative ideas to make your event extraordinary? Our staff will make sure all of the details are covered for you and your event.

Fridays and Saturdays are the most popular dates to book events at the Museum of Visual Materials, but we are available to rent Thursday-Sunday, except for major holidays. To set up your event at the museum, please contact us at 605-271-9500 or email. We also have all of our prices, fees, available dates, and more on our website to help make your planning process easier! Take a look at our various Wedding and Private Event pages for more information.

The museum is located a couple blocks away from beautiful Falls Park. We are at the crossroads of 5th and Main in downtown Sioux Falls.
