With a mix of casual elegance and formal settings, the<br />
Steamboat Building is set on the backdrop of the<br />
Miles River. The Steamboat Building’s newly renovated<br />
Van Lennep Auditorium allows you to accommodate up to<br />
100 guests for a formal sitdown or 150 guests for a more<br />
casual cocktail party. Outside on Foggs Landing, a tented<br />
event will comfortably accommodate 300 guests. You will<br />
also have access to the decks surrounding the Steamboat<br />
Building, all which have stunning views and breathtaking<br />
sunsets. The Steamboat Building also provides a private<br />
entrance and close proximity to the Van Lennep Auditorium<br />
and Foggs Landing.<br />

Navy Point<br />
Ron Blunt Photography<br />
To what is known in St. Michaels as the best views of<br />
the Miles, Navy Point, with the decks of At Play on<br />
the <strong>Bay</strong>, provides a location that will be remembered for<br />
a lifetime. Navy Point is ideal during the May through<br />
October months for a tented event overlooking the water.<br />
This spectacular site is home to our very own Boating<br />
Party held annually.<br />

Tolchester Beach Bandstand<br />
The Tolchester Beach Bandstand is a popular gathering<br />
place on the <strong>Museum</strong>’s Navy Point grounds, and the<br />
home of the annual favorite Big Band Night each July. (The<br />
bandstand itself comes from Tolchester Beach, outside<br />
Chestertown, Maryland, which was home to an amusement<br />
park. Tolchester Beach was a popular tourist destination<br />
from 1877 until 1962, when the amusement park was sold<br />
for development.) The bandstand area can be used both<br />
as a ceremony site and as a cocktail hour location when<br />
securing Navy Point for your wedding reception.
