- The Scene:
- The magnificent library is the perfect setting for your most significant celebrations. Start your evening with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in the sophisticated Exhibition Gallery surrounded by pieces from the Johns Hopkins Libraries’ diverse and rare collections. After your cocktails, the main doors swing open to reveal Peabody’s decadent vision – “An extensive library, well-furnished in every department of knowledge.” Today the collection contains over 300,000 volumes and is remarkable for its historic breadth and depth.
- Design:
- Your guests will be surrounded by six tiers of stately cast-iron columns, decorative railings, and classical embellishments touched with gold-leaf in this room that rises 61 feet from its black-and-white marble floor to the massive skylight that caps the central interior. Warmly lit, the space is so perfectly proportioned that, although the room is monumental, the feeling is intimate.
- Extra Perks:
- We include folding dark wood chairs with black seat cushions and dinner, cocktail, bar, DJ, sweetheart and cake tables. Also included in your rental is a dedicated security guard, event manager and three staff members. For an additional charge the Library Curator will take a small group of your guests on a private tour of the stacks and rare book room.
