Artifact Events, located in the Architectural Artifacts building in Chicago’s Ravenswood neighborhood, is a mix of traditional brick & timber loft style with a huge four-story atrium and beautiful outdoor courtyard.

With exposed brick walls and timber beams the Ravenswood Room and Loft spaces are perfect for a ceremony and reception with an intimate feel. The incredible four-story glass atrium and metal catwalks offer a one-of-kind spot to share your first kiss or first dance under the market lights. The private outdoor courtyard space offers room for more than 250 seated guests for ceremonies, while the North Side Atrium seats 300 and accommodates up to 500 for cocktail receptions.

With a variety of different space combination you can make your wedding as unique as the items inside Architectural Artifacts. If you’re looking for a one-of-kind loft style venue with a little urban chic mixed in, consider Artifact Events in the heart of Chicago’s historic industrial Ravenswood corridor.

Your guests are sure to be wowed by this remarkable space. Contact Christine at Artifact Events for more details!

Rental costs for Artifact Events (space only) range from $5,500 to $10,000, depending on dates, season and guest count.

The venue has a list of 15 catering partners.

Guests may park for free along Ravenswood Ave. Couples can also opt for secure valet service.

Artifact Events is also located less than a block from the Montrose Brown Line Station.

Vendors should coordinate with the Venue Manager who will be on site to arrange load in.

Artifact Events is tucked into the Ravenswood manufacturing corridor so there's an industrial vibe in the alleys. Inside the Architectural Artifacts space there are some fun portrait opportunities as well.

Welles Park is the closest park and the Lincoln Square shopping district is nearby as well.

If you're traveling up Lake Shore Drive from downtown Montrose Beach is a great option. Lincoln Park, including the Lily Pond and the Nature Boardwalk are also along the way.

WHY WE LOVE IT

Artifact Events has it all, from the outdoor courtyard ceremony space to the indoor to the four-story North Atrium. Plus the Ravenswood Room and Loft spaces offer the more traditional Chicago-style brick and timber loft feel. Plus it's dog-friendly. Basically, we love everything about this space!
Pro Tip: If your timeline allows, schedule a little extra time after arriving at the venue for portraits in the space. Architectural Artifacts is a treasure of a space and we could make pictures here all day!
