Facilities Rental

The Zanesville Museum of Art (ZMA) is pleased to permit groups and organizations use of the Museum's facilities for Special Events. The following are the Guidelines, Policies and Procedures that govern use of ZMA for Special Events. All special events must be in conformance with established ZMA requirements and must not interrupt the Museum's operations. If you would like to inquire about scheduling an event, please contact the Museum at (740) 452-0741 during normal business hours. Thank you!

Rates

Hourly charges will be assessed according to the total hours in which the space is in use (includes set-up, event, and clean-up). Events outside public hours, requiring complex setup, or including attendance over 75 persons are charged accordingly. Some larger events will require a security person. The Director of the Museum will determine whether security is necessary.

For-profit organizations or private events up to 75 persons, routine setup
Four hours $275.00, each additional hour $100.00
Per hour $100.00

Not-for-profit organizations (501(c)3 certification must be provided):
$50.00 per hour during public hours. Evenings or other hours by arrangement.

Reservations

Reservation dates are only confirmed once ZMA receives both the rental deposit (50% of total rental fees) and 100% of the security deposit ($150.00) along with a signed contract. All checks should be made payable to the Zanesville Museum of Art and sent to 620 Military Road, Zanesville, OH 43701.

The Linn Auditorium is available 9:00 a.m. until 11 p.m. Adjacent Atrium is available Tuesday through Sunday 5:30 p.m. until 11 p.m. Exhibition galleries are not open during “after-hours” events unless such arrangements are included in the contract.

Smoking

No smoking is permitted inside the Museum.

Handicapped Access

Parking

The Museum provides free parking on its premises. However, during other Museum events, the Museum cannot assure that adequate parking is available. The Museum takes no responsibility for damage to vehicles or theft of property in vehicles during events.

Set-up/Breakdowns

Set-ups and breakdowns may not interfere with ZMA visitors or guests at any time. Set-up time will be scheduled as available due to public hours. Arrangements must be made in advance. Breakdown must occur immediately after the event, and all rental items and decorations must be removed from the event areas at that time. Rental charges do not include the removal of bulk trash, crates, lumber and packing materials, which are to be removed by the Patron not later than the end of the breakdown period. Any such accumulation not so removed and removed by ZMA personnel will result in a charge to the Patron at prevailing rates. ZMA is not responsible for any items left following an event.

Decorations

• All décor and signs must be free standing; signs on walls or exhibit cases are not permitted.
• Confetti, glitter, rice, helium balloons and bubbles are not permitted.
• Fog machines and pyrotechnics are not permitted.
• Candles or any open flames are not permitted. Caterers may not use sterno heaters, grills, or other devices that utilize open flames without specific permission and monitoring.
• Any clean up that is beyond normal wear and tear will be charged to the Patron.
