About

Host your event at The Truman in our industrial chic warehouse-style venue; equally suited for receptions, fundraisers, corporate events, video shoots, trade shows, and conferences. Originally built in the early 1930s, The Truman has been restored and adapted as an ideal space for your custom event!

The Truman comfortably accommodates parties from 50 to 1400 with a variety of set-up and room options. The versatile, open floor design is accented a lofty steel beam ceiling and polished concrete bars that your guests will love. Complete with backstage suites, easily accessible loading area for vendors, and a staging area for catering, The Truman easily adapts for any type of event.

Relax while our professional and personable staff takes care of your every need. Our top-shelf bar staff works quickly to ensure your guests receive a high quality experience. In-house concert style production will ensure your entertainment looks and sounds world class. Leave the cleanup to us! We don’t require you to take out the trash or clean the venue upon conclusion.

Conveniently located just 2 minutes from Downtown, The Truman is located in The East Crossroads. The Crossroads Arts District is a vibrant and diverse community that welcomes all walks of life and all forms of artistic expression. Home to more than 400 local artists and 100 independent studios, the Crossroads Arts District is one of the most concentrated gallery districts in the nation. Beyond the galleries, restaurants, and storefronts, you will find an equally impressive collection of professional design studios, architectural firms, advertising agencies, and other innovative businesses.
