Find your place.

If you’re considering Illume Venue for an upcoming event, you’ve come to the right place. We’re here to answer your questions, so peruse the information below or, if you’d like, just call us at (866) 455-8631. We love when people get people together, and we’re here to help with it!

Built in 1923, this three-story facility contains a variety of spaces suitable for your event needs. This historic, vibrant church building includes arched windows, vaulted ceilings, and abundant wood detailing - all newly rejuvenated with updated lighting, sound systems, restrooms, and accessibility. Like most churches, this building was built to be a place where people gather to connect over what matters to them. Illume Venue continues that mission - for everybody. We’re excited to open the doors to the next 100 years of connection and memory-making.

Why hold my event in an historic Church?
People like events that are held in historic buildings for a variety of reasons, including:

• Aesthetic appeal: Historic buildings often have unique architectural features and design elements that make them visually appealing.
• Sense of history: Historic buildings can give people a sense of the past and the history of the community, city or country they are in.
• Connection to the past: Being in a historic building can help people feel connected to the past and to previous generations who have used the same space.
• Nostalgia: For some people, visiting historic buildings can evoke feelings of nostalgia and remind them of a simpler time in their lives or in history.

Overall, historic buildings provide a sense of continuity, community, and context, connecting us to the past and helping us understand where we come from.

Spaces are available for rent most days and times - just reach out to find out what we have available!  Kitchen, meeting spaces, get-ready rooms, audio systems, and more available by request.

Located at 5751 33rd Ave NE, this 12,000+ SF building spent its first century as the Ravenna United Methodist Church, and is now open to all kinds of events as it continues to create community for another century. Lovingly renovated spaces keep the thoughtful charm of the building’s original design while seamlessly integrating modern amenities and flexibility. 

From the two large event spaces, which are suited for weddings, anniversaries, corporate parties, seminars, fundraisers, concerts, and more to our variety of smaller rooms for things like lessons, meetings, game nights, and tutoring, the Venue has a place for you and your next event. 

Illume Venue has two kitchens, 5 brand-new and 2 fully remodeled restrooms, custom video solutions in our main spaces, high quality audio throughout the building, and did we mention the gorgeous arched windows throughout? Beyond that, when you partner with Illume you get access (if you’d like) to the power of our corps of volunteers who love to serve.
