The Cracker Factory is a beautifully renovated industrial factory located in Geneva, New York. Built in the early 1900s, the factory was the first home to cutlery manufacturer Geneva Forge. Since 2010, the second-floor gallery event space has been used for glamorous art shows, concerts, weddings, and more. Couples have the opportunity to add to the building's esteemed history and create a once-in-a-lifetime memory that can be cherished for many years to come.

Facilities and Capacity

The 6,000-square-foot gallery space is ideal for wedding ceremonies, receptions, and rehearsal dinners. Having been refurbished to highlight the structure’s industrial beauty, the gallery features glossy hardwood flooring, grand whitewashed columns, overhead wooden beams, and more. During daytime celebrations, the gallery's large windows fill the space with natural light and cast sweeping relations along the floor. As the celebrations run into the night, the space is warmly lit-up with an array of small lights that adds a personal and intimate touch to any special occasion. The gallery can be configured in a variety of ways and, due to its natural color scheme, can be transformed and decorated to best suit each couple’s preferred style and design. The event space can accommodate up to 376 guests and also features a fully equipped bar, caterer’s kitchen, and wheelchair-friendly accessibility.
