Think Kemper for a unique and exceptionally elegant venue to enhance that special occasion!

When planning for a special occasion: a wedding, a banquet or a corporate reception, the Anderson Arts Center has a variety of unique spaces and tranquil settings, as well as cocktail and dinner options, that make your event memorable. Full catering and full bar services are available in this mansion on the shore of Lake Michigan.

Located at the south end of the Kemper Center campus, the Arts Center is housed in one of the area's historic mansions. The former Anderson residence is now home to Kenosha County's only public center dedicated to the fine arts.

This fine arts gallery in an historic setting offers tranquil, landscaped private grounds and gardens, a large flagstone patio facing the lake and a uniquely arts-orientated environment reflecting the elegance of the period. One of the last of Kenosha's great mansions, the skill and attention to detail of master craftsmen are evident in every area of the former Anderson home. The high ceilings, woodwork detail and windows overlooking the gardens and the lake complement the well-proportioned rooms for intimate dinners or cocktail receptions. The flagstone patio, with french doors providing entry to the Galleries, accommodates large groups in an outdoor setting with a magnificent view of Lake Michigan.

Available on a limited basis, the Main and East Galleries furnish an elegant and arts-oriented environment for intimate dinner groups or cocktail receptions for up to 200 guests. With a capacity of 120 for indoor festivities, and 500+ for tented events on the patio, the Arts Center provides spaces for groups of all sizes. Kitchen facilities are located on the main floor and outdoor electric power is available.

Let our event manager show you the options available and help with all your banquet and reception needs.
