San José Museum of Art (SJMA) occupies a landmark position on the Plaza de Cesar Chavez in the heart of downtown San José, California. Founded in 1969 by artists and community leaders, the museum has grown into Silicon Valley's premier modern and contemporary art institution, earning re-accreditation from the American Alliance of Museums — a distinction held by fewer than 1,200 of the nation's 33,000 museums and just 78 in California. The museum's event program spans four distinct rental configurations, accommodating groups from intimate gatherings to full-buyout celebrations of up to 500 guests. Events take place amid a collection of more than 2,700 works and a rotating exhibition calendar that draws roughly 100,000 visitors a year. Rental packages include access to the New Wing, the Historic Wing, or both — each with its own combination of lobby space, gallery areas, and the Skybridge or café — as well as the Charlotte Wendel Education Center for daytime functions. An optional outdoor add-on brings guests to the Circle of Palms Plaza. Catering is handled through an approved vendor list, with exclusive beverage service provided by Mezcal Restaurant. Docent-led art tours are available as an add-on for groups seeking a more immersive experience.

We Have a Mission However, Kennolyn has been the site of world-renowned summer camp programs since 1946, when it first opened its doors to host weddings, special events, and retreats for guests. From its beginnings as a mere 60 acres at Stone Creek Village, it grew to 300 acres with the addition of Hilltop Hacienda Estate in 1956, and it has now grown to 450 acres with the addition of Soquel Ranch, which began as a mere 60 acres at Stone Creek Village. The vast majority of the land has remained undeveloped to this day because Kennolyn's commitment to harmony and awe for nature is inextricably linked to the preservation of natural life and beauty. Nonetheless, we have not shied away from providing all of the amenities, resources, and activities that will create one-of-a-kind memories and connections for those who visit our facilities. Kennolyn Events is still in business today, bringing people together for weddings, retreats, and other types of special occasions.

At Kennolyn, we are driven by the desire to assist you in bringing those qualities to life and transforming that representation into an unforgettable celebration. Our private, all-inclusive venues can be completely customized to reflect your personality and the setting of your dreams.
