- Katie FlanaganSenior Venue ManagerWhat do you love about The Century? The Century's contemporary industrial space serves as a blank canvas for any vision. While it allows every event to be different, every event here is infused with an energy of celebration, momentous occasions, and positive vibes. What's your favorite type of event and why? Weddings are my favorite! I love love and celebrating the love of others. What song gets you on the dance floor? After a few cocktails, it's definitely "Lil Boo Thang" by Paul Russell. What do you like to do outside of work? I enjoy walking my two mini dachshunds around Grandview, boating/camping, exploring the outdoors and local metro parks, and shaking hands and kissing babies.
- Erin McGloneVenue ManagerWhat do you love about The Century? I absolutely love that The Century is a locally owned and operated business, with a team that lives right here in the Merion Village area. It's a small but mighty group of dedicated and passionate individuals who truly pour their hearts into making this space both accessible and inclusive. What I also adore is how versatile the space is—it can be transformed to fit so many different vibes and aesthetics, depending on the event or vision. I’m so grateful to be a part of such an amazing place. What's your favorite type of event and why? Local markets and workshops are hands down my favorite type of event. I love the opportunity to meet new people, build connections, and form new friendships. What song gets you on the dance floor? As a dancer at heart, I absolutely love moving to any kind of music, whether it is vibing to Pink Pony Club by Chappell Roan, grooving to Boogie Shoes by KC and The Sunshine Band, or shaking it to No Hands by Waka Flocka Flame. What do you like to do outside of work? I love attending yoga classes and am currently working through my 200-hour yoga teacher training. When I'm not on the mat, you'll often find me out on the water, stand-up paddleboarding. I also have a deep love for reading and typically juggle two audiobooks and a paperback all at once.
- Lea AldagVenue ManagerWhat do you love about The Century? So many things to love but my favorite is that the space is a blank canvas and you can be so creative with it! I also love the community that has been built within it. What's your favorite type of event and why? Any type of wellness event! They're so empowering. What song gets you on the dance floor? Work It by Missy Elliot. What do you like to do outside of work? Yoga, biking, climbing and above all else: thrifting.
- Dania HamouiSenior Venue ManagerWhat do you love about The Century? The venue is huge and so versatile! Throw up some drapery and a dance floor or just keep it simple with some tablescapes. It's always fun to see how each client makes it their own and our team is committed to making sure the space meets your expectations. What's your favorite type of event and why? Kids birthday parties! It's also a great spot for corporate gatherings. What song gets you on the dance floor? Anything by Missy Elliott. What do you like to do outside of work? I enjoy spending time with my family, reading and going on walks.

I had the opportunity to work with Century on two styled shoots last spring. The space is a great combination of a neutral slate with plenty of character. The location is situated closely to downtown making guest transportation easy. The venue owners communicated timely and effectively. Overall from a fellow wedding vendor, my experience was amazing! I will absolutely be sharing the space with clients as a great option for their weddings and celebrations!

Our experience with The Century for our September 2024 wedding was nothing short of extraordinary. This venue is truly a blank canvas, perfect for bringing any vision to life. We chose a vibrant, colorful theme, and it was magical to see how the colors came alive against the crisp white walls, with the lighting adding a stunning dimension to the spacious room.
Erin and Arleigh, our incredible house coordinators, were invaluable throughout the planning process. Their attentiveness, professionalism, and personal touch ensured every detail of our wedding was flawless. They truly went above and beyond to make our wedding dreams a reality, and we cannot thank them enough for making the day feel so uniquely ours.
If we could relive this day a hundred times over, we absolutely would. We will cherish our time with The Century, for giving us memories to treasure forever!

The Century's team was great to work with for our awards show event. The venue has a great vibe, and has a number of great options for laying out the space. for around 150 people, it felt like a good size of space, and our guests have said they loved it as well.
It was easy to fill out required forms, and to understand what else needed done to bring in other vendors for the event. Set up and tear down was straight forward, and the night-of staff was great to work with, too.

We recently hosted our work holiday party at The Century in Columbus, Ohio, and it was absolutely perfect! The venue provided an amazing blank canvas for our event, allowing us to bring in a DJ and catering to create exactly the atmosphere we wanted. The space was flexible and accommodating, making it ideal for our needs.
A special shoutout to Arleigh for her incredible attention to detail. She was always on point, making sure every little aspect was taken care of, and her support truly made a difference. Her dedication helped everything run smoothly, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
The Century is an outstanding venue with a team that really cares about making your event special. If you're looking for a versatile space with excellent support, look no further. Thanks again to everyone at The Century for making our holiday party unforgettable! 🥳

OMG, we just had our wedding at The Century, and it was AMAZING!
Arleigh, the owner, was so thoughtful and accommodating. Our Venue Coordinator Roberta made sure everything was perfect for our big day. She was like our wedding fairy godmother!
Communicating with Arleigh and Roberta was a breeze. They always got back to us super quick and were super helpful.
The VCs made sure everything ran smoothly, and we didn’t have to worry about a thing.
The only tiny complaint we had was that the HVAC was a bit loud at times. But honestly, everything else was so awesome that it didn’t even matter.
Overall, we couldn’t be happier with The Century. Thank you Arleigh and Roberta ❤️
