Chrysler Museum

Located near downtown Norfolk and overlooking the Hague Inlet of the Elizabeth River, the Chrysler Museum of Art has been called "one of the pleasantest places in the United States to while the day away" --The New York Times.

The Museum's enclosed central courtyard is a grand and appealing space. Inspired by 15th-century Florentine design, the two-story white stucco walls set off a patterned slate and marble floor and a vaulted glass ceiling supported by great wooden trusses. The double staircase provides an impressive focal point while the glass ceiling floods the space with sunlight or moonlight, creating a truly breathtaking setting for your event

Renaissance arcades along the courtyard's perimeter offer entry into the Museum's galleries, specifically those containing the highly regarded glass collection and the Changing Exhibitions Gallery.
