  • “Leslie, what an unforgettable gift to present my one-woman art shows at the wondrous, one-of-a-kind Treman Center. There truly is no other place on the planet as inspiring. It is simply breathtaking. Everywhere you look is another beautiful, handcrafted element. The environment elevated the experience for over 100 guests. Every detail was perfect. You made me look good.”
    -Laurel Guy

  • “I want to convey my gratitude and appreciation to Leslie and the staff at Treman Center for helping me create such a meaningful Celebration of Life to honor my husband John. The personal support and caring attention to details gave us a beautiful space to gather and remember in a venue that reflected his spirit through the art, music and food shared.”

    -Carol Spence

  • “The very first place that came to mind when deciding on a local for a gathering that would honor the life and resonate with the spirit of my fiancé David, was Leslie and Kevin’s barn. There could not have been a more charming, appropriate, uplifting and comforting place to celebrate his life and persona, surrounded by the love of his family and friends. This gem in the middle of nature was conveniently close and accessible to Ithaca for all those came from close and far. The memory of this bright open space combined with the warm enveloping feelings of the community gathered to honor David just keeps lingering inside me. I am very grateful!”

    – Manuela

  • “The natural acoustics spread the unamplified Jazz Quartet music perfectly. Leslie glided smoothly between caterers and guests helping like a talented family member/friend! Our family and friends are still talking about the great comfortable stylish celebration at the Barn. We would do it again in a heartbeat!”

    – Roz B

  • “Kevin, your master workmanship is beyond words, and the meticulous structure speaks volumes about your talents as well as vision. Now add Leslie’s stature and tenacity and you have got an “upscale artistic institution,” perhaps a trend of new venues to follow and celebrate Life’s events…”

    – Jennifer R.

  • “Legacy’s Summer Gathering held at the Treman Center was a wonderful success. Our guests commented numerous times about the lovely setting and beautiful facility. Leslie and her staff made sure everything ran smoothly and were a breeze to work with. We are grateful we could hold our event at the Treman Center.”

    -Perri LoPinto Director, Legacy Foundation

  • “The Treman Center was the perfect venue for the Opera Ithaca’s Concert Fundraiser! The site’s set up is intimate enough to encourage conversation, but big enough to accomodate a large party - and complete with a beautiful Steinway piano. We felt that every detail of the event was attended to with great care - it made us look good.” Benjamin Robinson, Opera Ithaca
