Rent the Rourke
The aesthetic qualities of the Rourke Art Museum make it a perfect spot for intimate receptions and celebrations, corporate meetings, community gatherings and gala affairs. Built in 1913 as the Moorhead Post Office, the building at 521 Main Avenue retains its elegance and charm, with many original features, from the grand marble staircase to the beautiful wood details. The Museum’s main floor exhibition space and lobby and the outdoor courtyard serve as the key event spaces.
