Tents on Campus
As of January 2023, the Futter Field and Quad tents have been removed from campus and, therefore, are no longer reservable options for events. Please contact spaceres@barnard.edu to inquire about possible alternate indoor space for your event/meeting needs. Both of these outdoor areas are reservable, however, and are weather dependent, so we recommend when interested in reserving these spaces, that you have a plan B for rain/inclement weather.
To contact Events Management, please email: spaceres@barnard.edu
