The Bailey Center contains more than 8,200 sq. ft. The following spaces are available for rent to campus and community groups for meetings, programs, and social functions.
Butler Heritage Hall
As you enter the center, the Butler Hall greets you with large display cases containing memorabilia and artifacts, providing an interesting backdrop for any reception.
Nelson Boardroom
The formal boardroom contains a cherry table that will accommodate approximately 22 people. Black leather chairs and granite countertops make this room stately yet comfortable for meetings and seminars.
Engel Alumni Hall
With its high wooden-beamed ceilings and panoramic view of the campus, the hall can accommodate a seated dinner for 60 people or a reception for 150. The baby grand piano gives you a convenient option for background music at your event.
Patio
Our large patio is the ideal place for a barbecue cookout, a casual gathering of friends, or a reception before an award ceremony begins.
