The Institute of Living Arts
ILA Penthouse
Located in the heart of Chelsea’s Flower District, ILA Penthouse is a versatile indoor/outdoor venue ideal for everything from corporate team-building and training sessions to milestone celebrations, baby showers, weddings, and unique dining experiences.
Our lush, botanical space can be tailored to fit your vision. We offer a variety of catering options, custom cocktails and mocktails, full event design services, and—naturally—flowers. Tables, chairs, house linens, dishware, and glassware are included with every rental.
ILA Penthouse, along with FlowerSchool NY, is proudly eco-conscious. We compost organic waste daily and do not allow single-use plastics, balloons, mylar, or vinyl. All floral arrangements are foam-free and supported with natural or reusable materials.
