Celebrate in sophisticated style adjacent to a world-class art collection

In the heart of picturesque Bucks County sits the beautifully restored Michener Art Museum, offering captivating spaces for idyllic celebrations. Perfectly juxtaposed to this historic site is the Edgar N. Putman Event Pavilion, a contemporary 2,500-square-foot, glass-enclosed room beaming with natural light. This combination of art and architecture combine to make an exquisite and sophisticated museum wedding venue.

The James A. Michener Art Museum, named for Pulitzer-Prize winning author and philanthropist, is ideally located in the heart of Doylestown. With a world-class collection of Pennsylvania Impressionist art, this is the ultimate Bucks County Wedding & Events Venue for artists and art lovers.

An extension to the museum, the Edgar N. Putnam Event Pavilion stands in the courtyard as an impressive all-glass architectural feat. It has been awarded a gold medal for design excellence, is among the largest self-supporting insulated glass panels in the world, and is a stunning, customizable space for sit-down receptions and dinner for up to 200 guests. The pavilion also has direct access to the galleries and outdoor sculpture garden, which can accommodate a tent.

During your celebration, you and your guests may stroll through the galleries. Formal tours can be arranged for your event with one of the museum’s experienced docents.

The Grand Entrance Hall is a welcoming area for cocktail hour, with access to the courtyard and galleries. The 4,500-square-foot courtyard is a quiet spot for lovely wedding ceremonies, and a sunny space for guests to enjoy welcome champagne or cocktail hour.

Located in Doylestown, The Michener Art Museum is a great central meeting point for events, with many other attractions in Doylestown and nearby New Hope. The Michener is within 50 miles of Philadelphia, Allentown, and Princeton, and within 100 miles of New York City, making it a convenient meeting place for the Mid-Atlantic region.
