Venue Description
The stunning new Music Center at Strathmore is an ideal location for concerts, corporate meetings, product launches, television broadcasts, black-tie galas, fundraising events, and private parties. The building takes its cues from the rolling hills and park-like setting with a softly undulating roof that appears to merge into the steep hills of the Strathmore property.
With its soaring glass walls and windows throughout, beautiful natural light fills interior spaces of the Music Center, and the accents of natural wood make the spaces warm and inviting. A six-story glass wall in the Lockheed Martin Lobby overlooks an 11-acre site of greenery.
