The Poe Museum

Host your event among the ravens and the roses at the historic Poe Museum. Tucked into Richmond's Shockoe Bottom, the Poe Museum offers raw rental access to a one-of-a-kind campus: the Enchanted Garden with its brick-arched Poe Shrine and central fountain, the Old Stone House — the oldest residential building still standing in Richmond — and the surrounding grounds where Pluto and Edgar, the museum's resident black cats, often make appearances. Tiered packages run from two-hour daytime gatherings (up to 25 guests during museum hours, 40 after-hours) to four-hour evening events (up to 75 guests), plus a member-only micro-event option for groups of 20 or fewer. The venue is rented raw: tables, chairs, linens, catering, A/V, and event coordination are arranged separately through approved vendors, giving you the flexibility to shape the event around the setting.
