The Russel H. Kirkhof Center, centrally located on Grand Valley State University's Allendale campus, is a great location to host your event. The Russel H. Kirkhof Center is equipped with two large banquet rooms, multiple conference rooms, as well as built-in audio-visual equipment. This is the student union and is often considered the "living room" of campus.
The Cook-Dewitt Center Auditorium seats 236 people and could be just the place you’ve been looking for to host your concert, performance, lecture, service, wedding, or other event! There are 12 rows of chairs on each side of the center aisle and a raised stage at the front.
Located in the heart of the GVSU Allendale Campus, the Cook-Dewitt Center is just steps from the Cook Carillon Tower.
Grand Valley State University’s Allendale Campus provides multiple options for your outdoor event or info table experience.
