Reviews

Marvin and the crew at NWM were great from the get-go in helping us plan our Holiday Party this year. They recommended Crescent Moon Catering, who also provided excellent food, service, and communication. Having access to a catering kitchen, and a representative available during the party made things so much easier. They even helped us plan the seating arrangements! Can’t thank these folks enough.

The staff at NWM are exceptional to work with to make sure that your event goes smoothly. For the last two years the Port Townsend Public Library has hosted our annual “Meet the Author” event, which is the grand finale of the Community Read program. The attendees love the beautiful setting and appreciate how accessible it it. We look forward to hosting future library events at the NWM.

Thank you for everything you and your team did to make our employee service recognition event a HUGE success!  The space itself is spectacular, and it was a gorgeous evening both outside with the sunshine and inside thanks to Rebekah’s beautiful décor.  We got nothing but positive comments from our employees, leadership, and Board of Commissioners!
 
I appreciate your responsiveness, willingness to try new things (hello bar in the closet), and your awesome team onsite last night.  I hope we can return in the future as it was great to “treat” our hardworking team to a special celebration at the NW Maritime Center!
