The Horace Bushnell

	The Seaverns Room The beautiful hand-carved woodwork and lovely chandeliers of this colonial room create a luxurious setting for receptions. The room contains a chamber stage with a baby grand piano, as well as an outdoor terrace.
	The Autorino Great Hall A prominent feature of the Center, the Autorino Great Hall is a truly dramatic space completely enclosed in glass. The gable-vaulted ceiling rises 35 feet above the floor and provides the backdrop for a unique glass chandelier designed by artist Dale Chihuly.
	The Horace Bushnell Suite The Horace Bushnell Suite is designed as a refined retreat for hosting an event. Located on the third floor of the Belding Theater, the Suite overlooks the Autorino Great Hall with a close up view of Dale Chihuly's "Ode to Joy."
	The Hillyer Suite The Hillyer Suite is an entertainment space overlooking the historic Mortensen Hall stage.
	Mortensen Hall The striking art-deco interior of the 2,800-seat Mortensen Hall stands in contrast to its conservative exterior. The center panel of the ceiling is the largest hand-painted ceiling mural in the United States. Entitled "Drama," it was painted by Barry Faulkner in 1929 with a group of Prix de Rome artists.
	The Belding Stage The interior is intimate and luxurious, with a stunning ceiling mural, "Music of the Spheres." No seat in the theater is more than 75 feet from the stage.
