Venue Description

Please keep the descriptions basic and use general terms. For examples, view current listings on the map linked from our website.

We ask that you NOT include information in the description that changes periodically. For example, avoid:
  • Contact people's names, phone numbers, or email addresses
  • Rental costs
  • Amount of discount available to nonprofits
Such information is fine on a venue's website, but not on the Venues Map.

Example Venue Description: Our theatre offers a thrust-stage venue available for theatrical productions, presentations, speaking events, film screenings, graduations, and other events, seating up to 200 audience members. 
Enter your homepage if a venue rental webpage is not available.
