"For the intimate affair, Cafe 1906 is perfect. Cozy, warm, inviting, your guests will be impressed. We recently had our wedding reception at THELMA, and it was fantastic! The staff was exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable throughout the months of planning. The venue itself is completely gorgeous. Our guests were delighted as they strolled through the gallery and got to enjoy all THELMA has to offer. Everything was stunning, and the day went without a single hiccup. Even two weeks after the wedding, we’re still fielding calls, texts, and e-mails from guests who keep gushing about the amazing time they had. THELMA is part of that, and we are extremely happy with our experience. Yay THELMA!"

"The Thelma Sadoff Center was a good place for a gathering with a full bar and some caterers to choose from. Both the staff and caterers were very nice and helpful. There is a good space upstairs with 2 side rooms for private area or catering area."

"Whenever I do events off-site, I like try to find venues that complement the Kohler brand. THELMA’s unique event spaces, high service level and dedication to the arts, mirrors exactly that I wanted to portray. The atmosphere is absolutely fantastic and the staff made the entire process seamless. All of the guests really enjoyed themselves and some went on to enjoy the music as well. Some of the guest had never been to your property before which I thought was just crazy! The Fond du Lac community is lucky to have such an exceptional Arts Center in the heart of the city. We were thrilled to work with THELMA and look forward to doing it again in the future.”
