From small breaks and boxed lunches to large receptions and dinners, our talented culinary team is eager to cater your next event. Commons also offers sponsored bar services so treat your guests to a refreshing local brew or glass of wine after a day of learning. Let our talented events team assist with all the details. 

*Please note that Saturday events are limited to cold food items. There are asterisks on each menu item that is available for Saturday events.
