WELCOME TO THE HARTMAN

The Hartman is a fantastic multi-purpose space that can be used for weddings, private dinners, meetings, conference spaces, workshops, talks as well as parties.

The Hartman provides a unique setting, a combination of the original church structure framed by modern architectural modern decor and white walls. Its high ceilings, original details, a gothic glass window and fascinating history provide a wonderful atmosphere. The clean gallery walls create a modern feel which creates the perfect blank canvas for your event. It seats 55, with standing room for 75, but is equally suitable for smaller groups. Adjacent to the nave is the annex which has been recently renovated to provide overnight accommodations or is a perfect break out space, reception or refreshments area.

The private Garden is the perfect addition to any event needing external space. Whether a reception for a summer wedding, an evening drinks party or simply an area for those guests wanting some fresh air, but still involved with the party. This space is also the perfect space for a TENTED garden party for guests up to 120.

​

Another unique component to the Hartman is the BNB spaces. Here at the Hartman we have incorporated accommodations for our guests to enjoy. The MAIN space, sleeps 7, on the upper level contains 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, perfect for a pre wedding evening for brides and her brides maids, bridal suite for the day of or evening accommodations for after party. The GUESTHOUSE, sleeps 5, is a private getaway located in the back portion of the church, used to be the church hall, and is a self contained private cottage-like bnb. This is the perfect spots for a honeymoon suite or extra accommodations for guests.
