Event Spaces
Chevron Studios 297-299
The Chevron Studios 297-299 encompass 5,645 square feet of multipurpose space for meetings, guest lectures, receptions and banquets. With adjustable air walls, the space can be broken up into three separate meeting spaces to fit a wide variety of campus uses. Each room features a large projection system and built-in sound equipment to enhance presentations, awards ceremonies, and meetings of all sizes. Max capacity varies according to setup needs, but each room can fit 40-60 people with tables or up to 100 without tables. When combined, all three rooms can accommodate 125-175 people with tables or up to 300 without tables. All setup and teardown is the responsibility of the user. If you’d like to hire Rudder Theatre Complex to setup for you, contact Amanda Merrifield at 979-845-8903.
