Wauwatosa Woman's Club has met inside its own brick clubhouse since 1925, when the building was dedicated over three days of concerts, a costume party, and speeches by local dignitaries. The club itself dates to 1894, and members raised the funds to build the clubhouse and later paid it off outright, ceremonially burning the mortgage at the 1937 May Breakfast. The historic building's second-floor ballroom, originally called the Auditorium, is set beneath a vaulted ceiling and lit by a large chandelier, and has hosted weddings, galas, and holiday parties. Rentals are available in the first-floor meeting space, the second-floor ballroom, or the entire building, each with a minimum three-hour booking and a variety of table and chair setups. A commercial kitchen is accessible with the first-floor and second-floor rentals alike.
