Using Your State Bar Center
In addition to conducting State Bar-related business (such as
committee, section, and division meetings, CLE seminars, and so on),
members are encouraged to use the building for private meetings,
depositions, and social gatherings. If you're in town on business and
have time between meetings or court appearances, consider using the Bar
Center as your "field office" to return phone calls and check email
(bring your laptop).
With 40,000 square feet and more than 200 free parking spaces, the
Bar invites members to use: any of five conference rooms that can seat
from four to 16 people; a technology center that can hold 12; the
rotunda for receptions of up to 100; three large seminar rooms that
individually can accommodate up to 80 depending upon seating style, or,
when combined, up to 250 using a theatre-style seating arrangement.
Individual workspaces also may be used; their availability may vary
daily.
Meeting and work space are on a first-come, first-served basis. You
must call ahead to reserve space. Non-State Bar entities will be charged
a fee. For more information or to reserve space, please call Anne Rodgers at (608) 250-6099 or
(800) 444-9404, ext. 6099.
