Our gardens provide a beautiful backdrop for weddings ceremonies, rehearsal dinners, birthdays, anniversaries and other special events. Your guests will enjoy wandering through our many gardens, which are lovingly maintained by the Falmouth Garden Club.

“What can I say about my wedding…..it was absolutely perfect. Falmouth Museums on the Green just sparkled that day. Charlie and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. All was ready and waiting for us to arrive for the ceremony. Many of my guests commented on how friendly and helpful you were. One said that they felt “they were attending an event at your home.” Carole and Charlie Dembkowski
“The Falmouth Museums on the Green was the perfect place to hold my daughter’s graduation party. I was very pleased with the flexibility of the staff to accommodate my needs and the support provided during planning and set up for the party. I was looking for a casual yet sophisticated venue to hold the graduation party and I was very pleased with the outcome. Many of my guests commented on how nice the facility was and enjoyed the gathering.’” Karen Hart
“I recently hosted a day-long yoga retreat in the Cultural Center at Falmouth Historical Society. The space was exactly what my group needed. The serene setting, cleanliness, generous kitchen, and helpful team made the day go smoothly and our experience truly unforgettable. One of the best parts is the large deck and gardens, giving us peaceful surroundings to enjoy both indoors and outdoors. The room’s footprint is spacious, and the doors along one end flood it with natural light. There are also ample chairs and tables that are easy to set up or store depending on your needs. I highly recommend the space to anyone looking for a local, Cape Cod location to host their next event.” -Amy Littlefield
