Cyclorama was built in 1884 to showcase a 360-degree, 400-by-500 painting of the Battle of Gettysburg. Officially opened to the public on December 22, 1884, guests entered through a narrow hallway, climbed up a circular staircase, and were suddenly immersed in the artwork.
Over time, the artwork was removed, and a skylight was installed in 1923 by the Boston Flower Exchange. In 1970, the Boston Redevelopment Authority (BRA) revamped Cyclorama and the surrounding buildings as an arts center. Today Cyclorama is used year-round for charity events, wedding receptions, galas, launch parties and more!

My husband Keegan and I don’t have enough good things to say about BG Events, Denise & Baylee. We just got married at the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation in Waltham, MA in September 2017. There were various catering companies on the preferred vendor list and once we spoke to Denise on the phone we knew that she was who we wanted to go with. We live in Maryland and were worried about planning the wedding from far away but between Denise & Baylee they took care of everything. They had experience working with the museum and out of town brides and completely reassured us that we were in good hands. Throughout the planning process they worked with us to create not only a menu that was perfect for our taste, but were so knowledgeable and helpful regarding what equipment / event rentals we would need for the big day and offered their experiences in how we could repurpose everything. They understood our vision and worked with us to make it a reality. We had our ceremony and reception in the same room and the BG team was able to flip the room during cocktail in under an hour and it looked absolutely incredible. On the day of, with Baylee managing the event and Denise right by our side the entire day, we were able to completely enjoy our wedding and not have to worry about any of the logistics. BG Events gave Keegan and I an amazing stress-free wedding and we couldn’t have asked for anything else!
