ILA Penthouse, or The Institute for the Living Arts, is home to the famed FlowerSchool New York. Celebrating over 20 years of excellence in floral education, our venue offers an elegant, all-inclusive setting for corporate gatherings, social celebrations, and everything in between.
 
Whether you're planning an intimate 10-person dinner or a lively cocktail party for 225 guests with a seated meal, ILA Penthouse provides a sustainably focused space with endless possibilities. From catering and design to full-scale planning, we bring your vision to life—with minimal waste and maximum impact.
 
Sustainability, creativity, accessibility, and thoughtful planning are at the core of every event we host. What began with FlowerSchool’s commitment to eco-conscious floral design has evolved into a holistic approach to event planning. All of our floral classes embrace environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional floristry methods.
 
Recognizing that sustainability shouldn't stop at flowers, we reimagined the entire event experience. Our mission is to make every aspect of your event kind to the planet—by providing eco-friendly solutions in a space already rooted in honoring the earth.
