Quietly open since January, these hidden-gem spaces host meetings, receptions, and dinners.
1. Exposa, an antique-furniture showroom on North Avenue, is now open for events. The 2,600-square-foot space is suited to cocktail receptions for 100 and dinners for 70. Event Creative manages functions held within the venue, and the list of preferred caterers includes J&L, Blue Plate, and Entertaining Company. Other exclusive vendors are Classic Party Rentals and V.I.P. Valet.
2. The Museum of Science and Industry's Columbian Room opened on the museum's first floor early this year. The room offers Wi-Fi and can hold 120 for lectures, lunch meetings, or roundtable discussions. The venue is open during regular museum hours, and guests have access to permanent exhibits.
