Rent the Museum Plaza | Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum

Host a memory-making evening at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum's beautiful rotunda.

Our staff will set up your event in the 4,500 square foot center rotunda of the Museum, which is bracketed by a full-scale reproduction of Lincoln’s boyhood Indiana log cabin and, on the other side, a replica of The White House.

This is a spectacular backdrop for legislative receptions, formal dinners, conference receptions, awards banquets, and wedding receptions to name a few. Included with a museum rental is the use of the Gateway, the entrance to this museum that combines scholarship and showmanship to tell President Lincoln’s story.

Once the Museum Plaza is rented, create your own unique event experience by including museum exhibits, and theater presentations, and adding on event enhancements. Learn more about these options throughout our website.

We have held several events at the ALPLM over the last several years and they make the process as easy as they can. They are great to work with.
