Where Western History Meets Celebration: Events at the Autry Museum
Located in the heart of Griffith Park, the Autry Museum connects the past with the present, exploring an inclusive cultural history of the American West. Beyond its impressive collection of artifacts and art, the Autry serves as a captivating event venue, creating an elegant backdrop for weddings, galas, and other memorable occasions.
The Autry’s architecture provides a visually stunning environment for any event, featuring spacious galleries and high ceilings. The museum offers multiple event spaces, including the outdoor plaza, allowing you to customize the space for your event. Imagine exchanging vows surrounded by breathtaking artwork or hosting a reception under the stars in the plaza.
Our amazing team at Summit partners with The Autry to bring fine cuisine and exceptional service to prestigious clients. From braised bison with sweet potato mash, to maple thyme glazed salmon with mushroom wild rice, to pan-seared mushroom steaks, guests feasted on an unforgettable meal at a gala last month. An awards show in September featured an elevated barbecue menu, proving that our chef can make your culinary dreams come true, from homestyle comfort food to exquisite entrees. When you work with Summit for your full service catering needs, you pair a distinctive venue with an irresistible menu, bringing guests an unparalleled dining experience.
