The American Sector Restaurant & Bar, the Museum’s full-service restaurant, also offers options for social and corporate events in a setting that mingles 1940s glamour with modern decor. This space can be rented independently or added to a rental of BB’s Stage Door Canteen with Atriums for a full building buyout, which expands the capacity to 600 guests.
The American Sector Main Dining Room also offers excellent space adjacent to the restaurant. This room features natural light and the option for an open air event with a retractable glass wall facing Magazine St. The space can accommodate up to 60 guests seated or 80 guests reception-style.
