YOUR SPECIAL EVENT ON CAMPUS
Consider the unique locations on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus for your next special event. Mingle with the mammoths at Elephant Hall, kick-off your corporate event at the Champions Club. Backdrop your event with prestigious art collections at the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, the Great Plains Art Collection or the Lentz Center for Asian Culture. Let your imagination soar under the 40’ ceilings of the great halls in the Van Brunt Visitors Center or Wick Alumni Center or bring culture to your dinner event at the Lied Center for Performing Arts. Place your next event on campus. There is a place for you at Nebraska... the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
