Parthenon and Centennial Park allows you to
host an event at the museum. As an added

your membership is 100% tax deductible.

Holding a private event in the Parthenon is a
benefit of membership in The Conservancy.
An Olympian membership is $4,000
and provides for full use of the
interior of the museum, as well as the
park plaza, for an evening event.
The Nike member ($2,500) may hold a
daytime event on a Monday.
Olympian and Nike events have access
to the Parthenon’s interior spaces - the
Naos, Treasury, art galleries, Parthenon
lobby and restrooms. In addition, the
outside plaza and porches may be used.
All events will be provided with a minimum of
one museum staff person and one Park Police
officer. The staff is present to protect the
museum and its contents, answer questions
and monitor the event. All members will
also have the assistance and expertise of
the Parthenon’s Event Coordinator.
