Catering Guidelines:
1. Access: Please list your ideal setup time when you register and The Conservatory will confirm this with you. Note: The Conservatory is locked unless previous arrangements have been made.
2. Takedown: Please note that take down should happen at the end of the dinner service.
3. Trash: There is a large trash bin for outside for all event related trash. Please make sure to use the rolling trash bin rather than dragging the bag on the floor as that will create a mess through-out the building.
4. Sinks: The Conservatory has sinks for potable water, but not for washing any food related dishes or utensils. Please do not use the sinks to wash items.
5. Clean-up: Clean up should include the following: All food related spills cleaned up, food debris on the floor swept, wipe down catering kitchen surfaces, dispose of any left over food items in the trash, remove all trash and place in the dumpster (do not drag bags), replace trash can liners, and make sure to check out with the event manager before you leave. You can access the most current cleaning checklist here: LINK
6. Staffing: The catering company should provide staff to set up all catering related items, pickup dirty dishes, serve guests food as needed, and take out food related trash.
7. Beverages: All beverages except water at dinner should come directly from The Conservatory. We will provide the clients coffee, tea, lemonade, soda, wine, beer, cocktails, and any other drinks they may request.
8. Catering Fee: The week of the event the catering company will be invoiced for facility usage, wear and tear, garbage. The fee is $300. Checks can be made payable to The Conservatory and mailed to The Conservatory 315 E. 5th St. Suite 2 Des Moines, Iowa 50309.
9. Register with us: All caterers must be approved by The Conservatory/ Out of Box Productions before signing an agreement with your client.
