A one-of-a-kind venue, Carrie is a welcoming space for community, social, and corporate events.
SCALABLE EVENTS
A DYNAMIC EVENT LOCATION
Embrace the unexpected. Carrie offers an array of spaces—from intimate to outsized—that blend heritage, creativity, and your vision to create a truly unique experience.
For 50 or 5,000 guests, make use of these inventive spaces. Ask about the A.C. Power House; the Central, Western, and Carrie Deer Courtyards; the Iron Garden; and the Ore Yard.
WEDDINGS
An alluring wedding venue
For modern couples, the contrast of grit and grace creates an alluring atmosphere. Areas such as the Carrie Deer Courtyard and the Green Room of the Iron Garden provide charming, yet unconventional, ceremony sites, while the A.C. Power House is a canvas for crafting bespoke receptions. The postindustrial nature of the space offers an authentic backdrop for photographs; a myriad of textures and colors perfectly showcase a unique beauty—the love of a special couple on their wedding day.
