Music
Amplified sound is allowed only at indoor events (Van de Kamp Hall, Room B, the Minka or the Heritage Room). A disc jockey is considered amplified music. We suggest using violin, harp, other strings, flute or acoustic guitar out of doors.

Equipment
Descanso Gardens can provide a portable screen and a projector table for your use, but no other audio-visual equipment is available. Descanso will supply tables (round and/or rectangular) and chairs. Descanso has easels, a chalk board, and two white boards that are available for use on a first-come, first-served basis. We will supply chalk and/or dry erase pens, but you will need to supply all other materials (projector, paper for easels, etc.). For an additional fee, telephone hook-up for conference calls or Internet connection can be connected in Room B.
