Outside, a 13-acre landscaped campus designed by Studio-MLA surrounds the museum with gardens, gathering spaces, and striking views of the architecture. For events, the Lucas Museum offers a range of indoor and outdoor possibilities, including a dedicated special events space, two state-of-the-art theaters, distinctive dining destinations, studios and classrooms, and outdoor settings throughout the landscaped campus. The variety of spaces allows for everything from intimate dinners and executive gatherings to receptions, brand events, galas, and large-scale celebrations.
