What a beautiful local art museum and venue space! It is bright, modern, and features local artists. If you are looking for a modern luxury space for your next event, I'd strongly recommend using the Gray Matter Museum.

Oh my gosh, Adina and her team, the Event Loft, are absolutely outstanding! They provide everything from the venue, coordinators, florals, catering, photographers, DJ, literally everything! I feel like I did not have to lift a finger! Beautiful venue, ocean view as soon as you stepped onto the grounds! Not to mention the sunset right over our ceremony and reception area! I can also tell her staff really cares about the couple and their family! They did such a beautiful job setting everything up, and were so attentive. Really good people all the way around!! By the way, the food was absolutely delicious! Everything from the sliders, scallops, and the salmon entrée! 100% recommend!!!

The museum was super fun! Each room was really pretty, my favorite one was the lights. It's nice to just walk around and take pictures! Will come back again for sure!

We went here after hearing about this beautiful exhibit of Catherine Spinowitz. But man I was in love with the whole place! There is this gorgeous vaulted stained glass ceiling and then you’re surrounded by this beautiful art and then you look out the window and there’s an ocean view!! The way they have it laid out, you want to slow down and take your time.
And they display each piece so tastefully. You get to enjoy each one on its own, instead of overcrowding like some museums do.
Oh and the staff is super friendly! You’ll love it here
