Event Spaces : David Douglas room

Intimate and Ideal for Small Group Meetings

Adjacent to Miller Hall, the David Douglas Room is an ideal midweek getaway for small group meetings, business retreats, or management planning sessions.

Named in honor of the famed Scottish botanist, the classroom-style setting offers an intimate pleasant space. The room is self-contained, carpeted in neutral colors and has a separate area with a full sink.

An adjacent outdoor alcove has ample seating for breaks, break-out sessions or brown-bag lunches, weather permitting. The alcove is highlighted by hand-painted tiles that show the lives of a tree from seedling to mature forest.

With its proximity to Miller Hall, the David Douglas Room can be used as extra space for event preparation, staging, or event set-up.

The David Douglas room can be configured in a variety of ways including classroom or "auditorium" style for meetings.
