Stewart Family Courtyard

Open as of Summer 2025, we are excited to now offer the Museum’s newly renovated Stewart Family Courtyard for events of all kinds. The Stewart Family Courtyard is a wonderful outdoor space for receptions, weddings, parties, fundraisers, and performances with pristine views of sunsets over the Rocky Mountains.

Weather Contingency

The Longmont Museum’s programs such as our Summer Concert Series, are are rain or shine events. However, due to how Colorado weather can be unpredictable, a poor weather contingency plan can be discussed for events scheduled in the Courtyard. A contingency plan example would be to move the event inside to the Swan Atrium, Kaiser C Classroom, and/or Stewart Auditorium. The indoor capacity of the Museum is less than the outdoor capacity, meaning if you event has a planned attendance of more than 300 such a contingency may not be possible. If you have any questions or concerns about a weather contingency, please contact the Museum’s Rentals Team.
