The Edna Barnes Salomon Room
This 4,500 square foot rectangular space boasts dark maple wood floors, Rouge Jaspe accents throughout, and cream colored walls lined with paintings including “The Blind Milton Dictating Paradise Lost to His Daughters” by Mikhaly Munkacsy as well as artwork from James Peale, Rembrandt Peale, and Samuel F.B. Morse among others. The spectacular ceiling features faux skylights from end-to-end.
Unique among the event spaces in the Schwarzman Building, the Salomon Room is the perfect setting for wedding receptions, formal dinners, black-tie galas, and corporate parties.
