The Norton Museum of Art’s newly renovated contemporary spaces, lush landscapes and gardens, and distinguished collections create an exceptional location and ambiance for any event. Whether you’re planning a corporate celebration, dream wedding, or important meeting, holding it at the Norton will provide you and your guests with a unique and authentic Palm Beach experience on top of sophisticated service and an inspiring venue. The Norton Museum of Art was founded in 1941 by Ralph Hubbard Norton and his wife Elizabeth Calhoun Norton. Norton was an industrialist who headed the Acme Steel Company in Chicago. He and his wife began collecting to decorate their home, but then he became interested in art for its own sake and formed a sizable collection of paintings and sculptures. In 1935, Mr. Norton semi-retired, and the couple began to spend more time in Palm Beach. They contemplated what to do with their art collection and eventually decided to found their own museum in West Palm Beach, to give South Florida its first such institution, and so The Norton Museum of Art was born. In 2013, seeing the need for more exhibition and education space, Norton Trustees decided to embark on a bold, visionary Museum expansion. Scheduled to re-open on February 9th of 2019, the expansion, featuring the Kenneth C. Griffin Building, includes: 12,000 square feet of new gallery space; a doubling of classroom space; a larger student exhibition space; a state-of-the art, 210-seat auditorium; a new store and restaurant; and a Great Hall serving as the Museum’s “living room.” The stunning new expansion space will serve as a gorgeous and memorable backdrop for any event or special occasion.
