Sully Historic Site Meeting Facility
- Number of Rooms: 1
- Classroom Capacity: 16
- Description: The Wagstaff Conference Room is named in honor of Edward “Eddy” Wagstaff, Sully‘s first curator and the main person that helped save Sully from destruction in the late 1950’s when Sully and several other properties were going to be destroyed to make room for nearby Dulles Airport. “Eddy” also kept the property open and toured visitors around for several years before the Park Authority could fully staff the park and restore the beautiful buildings. The private conference room is ideal for team meetings. It comfortably accommodates approximately 16 people, with flexible seating and table space. Currently closed for reservations—please check our website for current meeting room reservation information.
