We put the ART in pARTy!

Picture

Guttenberg Gallery & Creativity Center has both indoor and outdoor spaces, dining for up to 20 guests, a full kitchen and studio for projects. We can even set you up with a private & secure WI-FI connection. Need coffee, snacks, or full catering? We can help with that too (and even get you a discount) through our local partner network. We are licensed to sell Iowa-native wines on-site, and can also provide specialty drinks like mimosas, espressos, and more!

Any party can be standard or private. Both standard and private party options include:
  • Access to the Creativity Center studio for up to 20 guests
  • Free WIFI
  • Optional use of the courtyard or gallery for music, food or gift opening
  • The ability to bring your own food & drinks

Standard parties occur when we're open, during our regular business hours (Monday 10-5, Wednesday 10-7, Thursday 10-5, Friday 1-5, Saturday 10-3). With no sitting fee, this party option is a great value and makes memories for both kids and adults. Standard partygoers pay only the fee for the individual projects they choose – or the host can choose to cover these costs.

Private parties take place when we're normally closed, so you and your guests have the facility all to yourself! This party option gives your guests an exclusive experience. Rates start at $50/hour, with an advance deposit required. Guests still pay a fee for the individual projects they choose – or the host can choose to cover these costs.

Children's Birthday Parties

Have your child’s birthday bash at the Creativity Center! Start the party with a fun and engaging art project, and end it with your cake and presents in the gallery or courtyard.
Choose from a wide selection of party themes:
  • Trucks & Tractors
  • Dynamite Dinosaurs
  • Rockets & Starships
  • Waggy Tails & Friendly Felines
  • Hot Chocolate Mugs
  • Or request your own personalized theme!
Instruction and all project materials are included. You can bring cake, food, drinks, presents, and decorations for a fun and festive afternoon!

Team Building Workshops

Work as a group to create something meaningful, or enjoy your own personal expression. Our parties give coworkers the opportunity to unwind together and see another side of the people they do business with every day. These workshops are flexible – we can accommodate your teambuilding activities or incorporate them into our creative space. Whether your staff are painting ceramic business card holders, making mosaic name plates, personalizing mugs for the break room, or any of our other unique activities, they are sure to bring back new insights to the workplace.


Bridal Showers

Have your guests sign a prepared canvas as a special keepsake for the bride, or dye silk scarves to wear on the big day! We can supply wine, or you can bring your own beverages and snacks. There is plenty of space both inside and out for gifts, food, and mingling before or after your art activity.
