Parking is available around The Carnegie Center building (13 spots), at the law office adjacent (17 spots), and free on the street. A map and/or written directions can be supplied. Any Renter wishing to hire a valet and/or security service may do so at his/her own expense. A valet quote can be provided via Eat Well Celebrations and Feasts. All calls for directions and other information regarding the Renter's function must be directed to the Renter, not The Carnegie Center. Note: Any client interested in valet parking might want to contact the Irish Heritage Center on Eastern Avenue. They have a very large rear parking lot and is located 2 1/2 blocks east of TCCCT. A valet quote to this facility can be provided, but permission / arrangements for using the Irish Heritage Center must be solicited and received by the client.

The client may bring their own alcohol, but they must pay for a Eat Well bartender to distribute (due to liability). The client may also choose to use Eat Well to provide and serve all alcohol for the event.

The client may choose to use Eat Well for linens, tableware, centerpieces, alcohol, and other rental items. They may also choose to provide these for themselves at their own arrangement and expense. The client may also choose to rent/use outside tables/chairs, but we do not allow Samsonite chairs in the facility.

TCCCT will only book 18 months in advance without Board approval. Any price changes are affective immediately, but exclude any events already booked. Therefore, pricing at the time of booking will be honored.

A surcharge of 25% of event rental fee will be charged for rescheduling the event. The re-scheduled date must be conveyed in writing to TCCCT within 30 days of the request to cancel.
