The process for scheduling your event here at the Performing Arts Center is remarkably easy! If you follow these three simple steps, your group could be holding its next event in Westlake’s newest auditorium.
Step One
Get together with your group and decide on a date and the type of activity you will be having. The Center normally hosts performances and lectures, but we have also had luncheons, awards ceremonies, and meetings right on site! Receptions of up to 300 people have been held in the lobby area alone.
Step Two
Set up a meeting with Center Coordinator Doug Warnke to tour the facility and talk some specifics. It is encouraged that everyone involved with the event come to tour the facility and get a look at the state of the art in the arts. After the tour, Mr. Warnke will sit down with you and go over the simple booking process as well as check the master district calendar for any conflicts on your chosen date. A general outline of the equipment you need as well as what the Center will provide is given at that time and you leave with a one page form.
Step Three
The final step in the booking process is to complete and return a one page rental agreement form. The form can be returned at the Center or at the Board of Education administrative offices located at 27200 Hilliard Boulevard. Once the completed form is turned in, your work is done! You will receive a letter from the business office outlining the specifics of your contract and fee schedule for your event. Most fees are billed after the event has taken place. You will need to provide the District with proof of liability, which is a requirement for using any building within the Westlake City Schools district.
That’s it! We look forward to hosting your event soon.
