News from the Hall
The waning of summer and transition to fall brings a variety of public and private events to the Hall. We're switching out our artist in residence, the annual Honey Bee Harvest Festival will be in full swing, a special Niwot Historical Society lecture takes place, and the next Wellness Lecture will address eye health.
|
There is also some very exciting news for Hall renters. In an effort to make holding an event as cost effective and all-encompassing as possible, new food service packages are being rolled out.
|
The event packages are based on three alternatives: appetizers, a buffet table, or a plated meal option. Each option includes desserts, flowers, linens, glasses and tableware, and an event coordinator. Additional services, such as renting a vintage bar and hiring a photographer are also available.
|
|
Consider the Hall for your celebrations, meetings, cultural event, or if you're in need of a place to hold a memorial. For details on rental options and to tour the Hall, write to rentals@NiwotHall.org.

Titled, "Niwot, The Spirit of Colorado," the author and Niwot Historical Society President, Kathy Monroe Koehler, will cover the origin story of the book, the timeline format, research tools, and what it took to bring the book to production.
