About This Vendor
Unique & Historic
This Victorian treasure was built in the late 1880s, and originally served as the county courthouse. It’s been lovingly restored, and boasts a two-story theater space with an exquisitely embellished ceiling and wraparound mezzanine balcony. In the warmer months, ceremonies may be held in Centanni Courtyard. This airy outdoor space continues the historic feel of the Arts Center with lawns, a large arbor, and brick pathways. Your rental fee helps support the Center’s mission: to educate the community about diversity through the presentation of multicultural arts programs, and to make the center available to artists and groups who may not otherwise have access to a professionally equipped space.

This was a truly incredible venue. We toured the space and knew that it was just right for our planned size (~80 guests) and vibe. Adria was extremely helpful in booking the venue, and the event team was helpful in the lead-up to our wedding. We had our ceremony in a chapel nearby, then cocktails and snacks in the gallery, then dinner and dancing in the main hall. The art was lovely (some of our favorite photos from the night were taken in the gallery) and the main hall barely needs any decoration (we just did a few flower arrangement for the large windows). The AV/Production Assistant was very helpful in making sure the evening ran smoothly, including queuing up songs for our first and last dance. We cannot recommend CMAC strongly enough!

-Stunning backdrop for a ceremony and reception. Exceptional value for the price point! Also super convenient parking garage one block away ($5 weekend parking!)-Beautiful courtyard for outdoor photography (or an outdoor ceremony if you want, we opted to have ours indoors)-Very helpful and kind staff that answered all our questions! And we were highly impressed with the venue person present on the day of our wedding, who really went above and beyond to make our day great. -Highly highly recommend the Multicultural Arts Center!

We loved the Cambridge Multicultural Arts Center as soon as we saw it and it ended up being the perfect venue for us! We had about 100 guests in attendance and everyone loved the setting of the ceremony in the classic Cantabridgian brick courtyard, cocktail hour in the gallery with gorgeous art, and the amazing ceilings of the main hall. Many of our guests stayed nearby in Kendall square and got to explore the city the days before and after the wedding, which was a big bonus given that we had a lot of folks visiting from far away. Adria and Jonathan were very easy to work with, responsive to my many questions throughout the process of planning and executed everything perfectly. They worked well with our other vendors so that things happened seemlessly. We also loved the mission of CMAC and to get to celebrate in a place that is both beautiful and doing something positive for our local community was extra special. The cool lighting on the dance floor was an added bonus!

My husband and I wanted a wedding that was right in the middle of the city and felt like it was a part of things, not a venue separate from the surrounding environment. The building is beautiful and stately, and our ceremony in the courtyard was beautiful and exactly what we imagined. Adria and the CMAC staff were incredibly helpful, responsive, clear and accommodating -- especially through the process of rescheduling our wedding due to COVID-19. Having our wedding at the CMAC was everything we could have wanted it to be, and their rental fee is very reasonable, especially compared to other options in the area. I couldn't say enough good things about it!

Beautiful venue in a walkable neighborhood close to hotels and Airbnbs! We had the ceremony in Centanni Park, right outside of the MCAC, which is a beautiful and lush park tucked away in a courtyard. We didn't buy any decorations for the ceremony because it's a great space on its own, with a lot of good places to take photos. After the ceremony, guests immediately walk into MCAC gallery for drinks. The ballroom has an amazing ceiling and staircase.Couldn't be easier - no need for getting shuttle buses. The staff is super easy to work with, and they have a good list of approved caterers. It's easy to get ready in the rooms on the top floor, a real one-stop venue. Definitely on the affordable side of getting married in Greater Boston. Fits 100 people comfortably.

What a hidden gem! This place has such gorgeous painted gold and blue painted ceilings and a pretty cool staircase with a balcony where you could wave to guests when you're coming down the aisle! The ceilings even looked better when they were lit up! The staff were actually fantastic and got back to us as quickly as possible whenever we had a question. They also have two dressing rooms that you could get ready in if you needed to. We were surprised they were so affordable considering other venues in the area were charging upwards of $5 or 10 grand. We had a small wedding of 25 guests, but I believe the center can hold up to 120 for a seated dinner. You get so much value in this beautiful space!

Day of, the staff on site helped our coordinator (definitely recommend getting a day-of coordinator for the space!) and caterer make sure set up, lighting, and breakdown all proceeded without a hitch.The theater space itself is so lovely and distinctive, and it's a perfect size for a medium wedding. The option to use the park outside for the ceremony and the gallery for extra cocktail space provides variety and convenience all in one. An unforgettable spot for a wedding in Cambridge!

The day of went smoothly, but I have to say the venue made things very difficult for us leading up to it, by changing their policies several times (or forgetting what their own policies were), and being inflexible about it. A lot of it has to do with how mercurial their director (Shelley) is. We signed a contract to start at 4p with the ceremony at 5:30p, and then we learned from our caterer that we needed an extra 2 hours set-up time. We contacted Jamie and asked her to add those hours. Her response on 8/30/2017 was: \"Thank you for your quick response! That will work well. You're welcome to add two additional hours if you'd like, currently with those details the 8 hour rental timeline would be the following (we start all rentals at the top of the hour, not half hours) I'd recommend adding one more hour if you want a longer reception: 3pm- 5pm Set up / 5pm - 10pm reception / 10pm - guests depart / 10pm-11pm Break down.\" All good, right? Except that Jamie never updated our contract, so when she left CMAC and our new contact was Jen, our timeline was news to her, so we had to ask her to start the wedding at 3pm again. She confirmed on 1/30/2018--five months out: \"You’re all set for 3pm-midnight. That’s a total of 9 hours (8 plus 1 additional hour). Please let me know if you need anything else!\" Then on 2/3/2018, the director refused to honor Jamie's email and told us that the event couldn't start any earlier than 4: \"2/3/2018: We cannot accommodate the additional hours on this THURSDAY NIGHT EVENT because set-up cannot begin before 4pm. We have her, per her contract, in for 4 – midnite on Thursday June 21.\" Our caterer called to explain the situation, but Shelley wouldn't budge. We had to pay $400 for extra staff to our caterer, as opposed to $100 for the extra hour to CMAC so the caterer could speed up the process. On top of this, Jeff (the site manager) and Shelley (the director) had different ideas about whether it was okay for the vendors to load in equipment the day before: Jeff told us it was OK during the walk-thru, and then Shelley pulled me aside during the rehearsal to say she'd only allowed the early load in as a \"courtesy\" (something I confirmed was OK with Jeff in the weeks before) and acted annoyed that the vendors had delivered their equipment the day before. When I told her that we already confirmed all these things with her staff, she blamed them for not updating her own \"notes.\" Finally, we were told several times during the months leading up to the wedding (including during the walk-thru) that parking in the garage was $5 cash for guests on the day of, and it wasn't until 11:30p that night when I was trying to exit the garage to help load-out our stuff that we learned the $5 cost is only for weekends--instead it was $16 per car. I'm sorry to say, but my overall experience with CMAC was very frustrating. I think a lot of this stems from the director's officious attitude: I remember during rehearsal, when the DJ was loading his equipment in the corner of the theater hall where he planned to set up, she made him move his equipment to a different wall, for no other reason than that's where she wanted it to be. Thankfully, the venue had little influence over the wedding itself, so for that I'm happy. Just be sure if you book here to get everything in writing (especially updated copies of your contract whenever something changes) because at CMAC the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing.

The Multicultural Arts Center is a beautiful venue. The theater space has a high, intricately painted ceiling and balcony and if you're fortunate enough to have good weather like we did, the Centanni Courtyard is perfect for an outdoor ceremony. I like that it's mostly shaded, surrounded by trees, flower beds and pretty urban brick buildings. We got wonderful pictures outside before the ceremony. I would also recommend the Kimpton Hotel Marlowe if you want a separate place to get ready/have a hotel room block. It's a scenic, under 10 minute walk between the hotel and the multicultural center and also made for great pictures of the whole wedding party walking over together. The downsides of the Multicultural Arts Center are that they don't help you with much! Jeff is a great contact at the venue (once you are transferred to him from Jamie who only works there part time to take initial inquiries) and he was a pleasure to work with, but you use the caterer for all actual coordination. CMAC has a lot of rules and, while some of them are regulated by the city like no open flames, there are other things that they could do to be more accommodating especially as it seems the rate for this space increases every year. There should be a designated space to hold all decorations for pick up the following day instead of requiring everything to be removed the night of the event. Also they should offer appointments to let people see the space on weekends. That said, it is a great, pretty unknown venue in Cambridge.

I am so happy we chose the Cambridge Multicultural Arts Center (CMAC) for our wedding ceremony and reception venue. We worked with Amanda and Tori (now since departed) for the planning and set-up and with Jeff who was on-site on the wedding day itself. They were complete professionals and made the rental and planning experience very easy. Jeff coordinated with our band and DJ and helped them set up for an amazing night of music and dancing. The site speaks for itself – its gorgeous. We got married outside in Centanni Way Park surrounded by historic, brick buildings. The ceiling in the theater space is breathtaking and our entrance down the stairway inside was unforgettable. We used the upstairs gallery for our cocktail hour. The variety of spaces and sites all within the CMAC was really appealing to us and made for an unforgettable event.

CMAC is an unusual space that's got modern art in a traditional Cambridge locale. The theater space has a beautiful ceiling and decorations and the art galleries were great for the bar. Plus the kids could run around in the courtyard outside. People couldn't stop raving about it.;We chose to use an iPod rather than a DJ and the timing with the site manager was a little rough. I wish we had been able to meet with him in person but as our contact person was different the communication got a little messy.
