Museum
The Bowers Museum offers a venue for a variety of events. These include wedding receptions, elegant
dinners, corporate functions, school dances, charity galas, and holiday parties. All facility renters will
receive a complimentary Bowers Museum family-level membership valued at$130.
The Facility Use Rental Agreement ("Agreement") provides the terms under which Bowers Museum
rents the Museum space. Constellation Culinary Group will provide a separate contract for
catering for all food and beverages. For all food and beverage needs, Constellation Culinary
Group must be utilized.

The Bowers Museum is generally available for rental Tuesday through Sunday between 8:00 a.m. and
11:00 p.m. Monday rentals are billed a minimum of$1,000, in addition to the regular facility rental fees.
Special events cannot be scheduled in some areas of the Museum during normal operating hours(Tuesday
through Sunday, 10:00 a.m.to 4:00 p.m.). All events are scheduled within the Museum's sole discretion.
Every reasonable effort will be made to accommodate requests. The selection of a date does not itself
hold that date indefinitely. The Museum may hold the requested date up to two weeks from initial contact
with the Special Events Department. To reserve an event date, a deposit of 50% of all quoted rentals
must be paid, a credit card for the damage deposit must be provided, and the Agreement must be
signed.
Damage Deposit
Upon execution of the Agreement, the Renter shall provide to the Museum a valid credit card to be held
as a general damage deposit. Should damage occur to the Museum premises resulting from the Renter's
use of the premises, the Renter's credit card will be charged, and the Museum will forward a detailed
accounting of charges to the Renter. If the Renter's card is not valid, the Renter will be billed for such
damages, which will include an administrative service charge of 10% of the total balance due. Should
the premises be left in good condition acceptable to the Museum, in its sole discretion, the Renter's
credit card will not be charged. Should excessive damage occur, such items will be documented
and invoiced to the Renter. Payment for excessive damage is required within 15 days. Should the
Renter question such charges, they should contact the Special Events Department at 714-567-3617.

Animals are not permitted at the Bowers Museum. The only exception is for service animals on a leash
and under their owner's control as authorized by applicable law.
Cancellations
The 50% rental deposit is non-refundable except as specified herein. The Museum retains the option
to cancel an event should the Renter fail to comply with any of the provisions contained in this
Agreement.
