Museum of Visual Materials

Terrific Wedding Venue and an historic downtown building that keeps on keeping on.

Wow what an experience!! I went there for the first time for Million cups of coffee. The Mayor spoke then was talking with Kaitlyn the event coordinator as I asked for her card to host a few events . Awesome space and it feels really cozy for being a big space. Contact Kaitlyn

First, let me just begin with saying the Museum is one of the most stunning venues I’ve ever been in. It is gorgeous with even very minimal decoration, and is an absolute steal for the price. Second, the entire staff was incredibly helpful and supportive. Kaitlyn was amazing through the entire process before the day, and then Terrie, the staff member who was there the day of was AMAZING. She was so helpful and did a great job of giving direction and making sure everything went smoothly. We did both our ceremony and reception at the Museum, and even though only about 1/3 of our guests were able to make it (due to the massive blizzard) the Museum was still the perfect venue for us.

Neat venue, refinished beams and bamboo wood flooring, makes for a trendy location.

As a wedding photographer I LOVE when couples have booked the Museum of Visual Materials! The lighting is always great, the staff is super kind, and we love working here!

I hosted a homeschool meet up and Kaitlyn was so helpful, it was wonderful! We love the children activities mon-wed. If you havent been here its a must!!

Great event Hall. They offer rentals for events such as weddings or corporate functions and they also have a lot of free childrens events there. We like to take our young children there on play dates.

The MVM is one of my very favorite venues in Sioux Falls. - The staff is very friendly, the location is located in the heart of Sioux Falls making it very easy for guests to find accommodation. - Makes for great photography!Thank You for always being a trusted vendor!Christopher

The Museum of Visual Materials is like my second home on a spiritual level lol. Nah but for real please check this place out if you like art or youre just a cool groovy person looking for fun.

Great place to host a wedding! Staff was great. They have some odd rules but nothing extremely out of the ordinary.

Super cute place! Love the artwork. We were here for a book signing and it was the perfect venue

This is a great place to let your children create and play.Great variety of activities available, friendly accommodating personnel. Free.Donations accepted cash and crafters this is a great place to donate extra craft supplies

My wife and kids love coming here for the crafts and activities. It was one of the first things we heard about in Sioux Falls, even before we moved here. It quickly became a family favorite and they visit nearly every week. Im glad every time I can come with them to enjoy it.

We recently attended a wedding at this venue. Pretty place, lots of space for he right amount of people and nice staff. The art was more abstract, but pretty.

Was there for a wedding and reception. Second time I was here for a wedding. Lots room for a medium to small wedding and reception.

Excellent facility for indoor adventures with the kids. There are crafting/painting materials, giant blocks, Legos, books, dolls and a great open space for getting built up winter energy out! It is a clean, inviting, and beautiful space.

Beautiful setting inside and out

I love this place. Wide variety of things to do for adults and kids. My nieces love going to the museum with their aunt Jen

This is a super cool place to have an event! The staff is very confident and really friendly. As an Entertainer its an easy load in and theres plenty of power to set up our Stage Show. The Acoustics are great so you dont need a ton of volume. And its close enough to other bars so you can bar hop after your event is done if you like and its walking distance. This building was put up in 1885 so there is a lot to see inside and a lot of history.

Very great place for kidsMy grand kids love thesePlace

Great place to take kiddos of different ages. My 6 year old loves the painting and craft area and my 3 year old bounces between the cars, dolls, Legos, and books.

Had my wedding ceremony here - absolutely beautiful, unique venue! Everyone commented on how creative and one-of-a-kind the space is.

The staff is very helpful. Make sure your vendors are aware of the rules, especially your caterer. They are not allowed to leave anything behind, especially garbage.

My daughters love playing there at the sections they have and doing crafts during its special events.

We went there for a wedding and a wedding receptionWhat a beautiful place

If you are looking for a breathtaking venue to get married and that will not cost you an arm and a leg than look no further. Its beautiful, gorgeous and the staff are so helpful and amazing especially Janelle. She made my dreams come true and when I was crazy and didnt know what to do she guided me. You can bring your own caterer in which is a HUGE bonus. I will recommend this place until I die!!!! Love it.

I love the Museum of Visual Materials. I love how open it is and how you can come in and just do your own thing. I have come here with my two girls for the past 4 years, ages 6 and 4 now, and they Iike the imagination play foam for building and constructing. They also explore the open art area, lego tables, story corner, the giant dollhouse, and Lincoln logs. There really is something for every stage and age.

Wonderful place to bring your children and cure the winter blues! The craft area is very well stocked and open for lots of creativity. The play areas are stocked with toys for open, imaginitive play. They also have great activities and classes throughout the year.

Great place for events. One of the oldest buildings in Sioux Falls and original!

I took my kids from my work on a field trip there. They had some stuff for them to do but I was kinda disappointed...there were moms coming in with their kids and it looked like they had all kinds of stuff to do but the museum only directed us to 3 different areas. The Big blocks were fun...kids loved those!

My daughter and i love to come here. We have come several timesthis year for crafts. We also came in october for their Halloween event. My family doesnt really do halloween in general, but they had a fall area set up for picture taking. With mini bails of hay and pumpkins a bench and a background. Our pictures turned out quite lovely.

So pretty and great staff!!

The place is great to hold an event. Great location. Very close to multiple places downtown.

We love the kids activities they offer, and it looks like it would be a great event venue.

This place is amazing!!! I love bringing my kids here.

Had my wedding there last Saturday and it was so beautiful! Best place to have your whole wedding at!!

Great little spot to take the kids for something different!

This place is amazing!!!! We had a great time. The kids activities are not like a childrens museum! They had legos, kids books, barbie dollhouse, big blue blocks and a well stocked craft area. All for FREE!!!!!! We cannot wait to go back!!

Good friends meet in good places

Cool place.

Attended a friends wedding at the Museum. Very nice facility.

I would recommend the craft nights! Very fun!

Fun place to bring kids, they regularly have events with crafts and a themed story time.

Nice little place to go with the kids. Was also lovely reception hall for a wedding we attended.

Beautiful venue,great staff

My friend rented it out for a wedding receptions and it was really nice.

Like their craft nights...

Craft night is really fun and you really cant beat the cost.

Very unique for an intimate wedding venue

Strangely, the one and only person you will find to greet you, direct you, and/or excite you enough to want to come back...did none of the above! Too bad:( My daughter was so excited to visit, but we both left feeling like it was a waste of time.

Great little museum in Sioux Falls. Loved it.

Great place to take the kiddos and let them run!

This place is kinda small, but thats really its only drawback (some of the paintings are also a little...post-representational for my tastes, but I still enjoyed looking at them). Its a beautiful building, surrounded by a beautiful garden, in which there are an array of displays on various interesting topics, as well as numerous paintings for sale, and permanent artistic displays. The staff was very friendly and accomodating, and they permitted me to wander throughout the facilities (including some rear areas that I wasnt entirely certain were ordinarily open to the public), despite the fact that the place was all set up for a wedding reception (presumably taking place right about now).Its a very eclectic and downright cool place, with all sort of objects dart & assorted knick-knacks either for sale, or just on display, atop shelves & shelves & shelves of books on all manner of artistic, scientific & cultural topics (I was especially pleased to come across a copy of Roy A. Gallants National Geographic Picture Atlas of Our Universe, which my grandfather gave me for Christmas way back in 1980, and which I hadnt seen for a good many years).Like I said, the place is small, so dont plan on making a day of it, but its definitely more than worth checking out. Its nice that theres no admission fee, but despite being unemployed, I still threw a dollar in their donation box...so if you have a full-time job, please see if you cant do just a little better than that.

We held our wedding reception here! Beautiful space!

Very pretty!
