FAQs 20
- What is DAR?
- The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) is a non-profit, non-political volunteer women’s service organization founded in 1890. Any woman 18 years or older regardless of race, religion or ethnic background who can prove lineal descent from a Revolutionary patriot is eligible for Membership.
- What is included in the venue rental cost?
- As we are a historic venue and museum, we provide just the space “as is.” We don’t provide any additional equipment such as tables, chairs, linens, uplighting or A/V. These items would be contracted through your vendors. DAR is more than happy to provide recommendations for all vendors.
- What staffing is included?
- We provide Security personnel, cleaning staff, and a Venue Coordinator. The Venue Coordinator serves as the central point of contact for anything that has to do with the venue itself and making sure all policies are followed during the event.
- Does DAR require a planner?
- Yes. All events must have a contracted event planner who is responsible for the management of the event, including attending the walkthrough, and supervising all vendors. They must remain on site throughout the event until it has completed at its contracted end time.
- Can I provide my own alcohol?
- Yes, exclusively via Ace Beverage. Otherwise, your caterer will be responsible for this.
