What Our Clients Say

Exceptional Quality & Service

I have consistently been impressed by the professionalism and responsiveness of the staff. From planning to the execution of events, their team demonstrates a commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction that is truly commendable.”

A Unique, Customizable Venue

“The Study Hall is a unique, customizable venue that can easily host a casual summer workshop for 50 students, or an evening event with 200+ guests. The staff at the Midtown Center are professional, accommodating, and very supportive of the local community. They offer great hospitality to both CFHZ and our guests!”
– Holland Zeeland Community Foundation

Plenty of Space

“My House Ministry was excited to host our first Gala fundraiser in the Study Hall at the Midtown Center. The space is beautiful and grand! The round tables were extra-large in size, which led to comfortable seating for our guests. The space was big enough to accommodate multiple stations for food and beverages with plenty of space left to move around the room.”
– Kimberly VanKlompenberg, My House Ministry

A Positive & Memorable Experience

“Whether it be for business meetings or hosting the Quilt Show, their facilities are equipped to accommodate various requirements with utmost professionalism and efficiency. Their proactive approach to addressing any concerns or special requests ensures that clients feel valued and supported throughout the rental process. I am confident that anyone who chooses to rent the Study Hall will have a positive and memorable experience.”
– Tulip Time

A Beautiful Space

“The kitchen was easily accessible for our caterer and volunteers. Many of our guests commented on what a beautiful space this was. Nic was knowledgeable and easy to work with; he even coordinated important set up and building details directly with our vendors. Everything went very smoothly. We are looking forward to hosting a future fundraiser event in the Study Hall.”
– Kimberly VanKlompenberg, My House Ministry
