About this venue
A true gem, the James Whitcomb Riley Museum Home is a National Historic Landmark tucked away on the cobblestone streets in the historic Lockerbie Square neighborhood, within walking distance to downtown and Mass Avenue Cultural District.

The boutique venue also features the Bonnie Lou Wood Visitor Center, an indoor/outdoor facility with a walk out patio through picturesque French doors, perfect for cocktail hour. With the historically preserved home, the idyllic grounds, and the indoor/outdoor visitor center, this exclusive property is a premier location for your wedding, rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, engagement party, or special celebration.
