Máximo's Moments: Planner Feature Series |
|
We asked some of our frequent planners why they enjoy working at the Field Museum. Here are some of their responses:
"The events team is exceptional: they run a tight ship, and are wonderful collaborators. I also adore the interior and exterior architecture; it creates such a stunning backdrop for milestone events." - Birch Design Studio
"The space is unique, the view from the Northeast Terrace is amazing, and the event gave our corporate guests an opportunity to see something very 'Chicago.'"- Next Level Event Design
"The Field Museum events team is second to none! They are so on top of the details and make my job and the rest of the vendors' jobs a breeze!" - LOLA Event Productions
"Great staff and a wonderfully iconic Chicago venue." - PRA Business Events
"There is so much flexibility for customization and innovative design and planning at the Field Museum, for groups large and small! We love working in the space itself, rich with history and deep ties to Chicago, and so many options for customization to create a unique guest experience every single time - it never "gets old" working at the Field! And of course, we would be crazy not to mention how much we love working with the Field Museum events team!" - LK Events |
