FFA Enrichment Center

The FFA Enrichment Center is a multipurpose conference and event venue adjoining the Des Moines Area Community College (DMACC) Ankeny Campus in Ankeny, Iowa. The 60,000-square-foot facility opened in 2010 and was built through a collaboration of agricultural and civic partners to support educational programs, leadership development, and community events. The center offers 17 multi-purpose rooms across a range of sizes, from intimate boardroom-style spaces to large conference halls accommodating up to 700 guests in a theatre layout. The John Deere Exhibition Hall — a two-story atrium-style space — anchors the facility and hosts trade shows, receptions, and registration areas. Two large conference rooms can be used individually for up to 240 banquet-style guests each, or combined to seat 480 for larger galas, conferences, and fundraisers. All event spaces come equipped with ceiling-mounted projectors, projection screens, integrated sound systems, and on-site technical support. A catering kitchen and preferred catering partners support on-site food and beverage service. The facility hosts approximately 400 corporate meetings and events annually alongside weddings, holiday parties, and nonprofit galas.
