The Michener Art Museum is thrilled to welcome their new exclusive caterer MaxHansenCaterer. Max Hansen and his team will be focusing on creating the finest and most innovative cuisine, as well as providing an unmatched level of service that Hansen has been renowned for in Bucks County and Philadelphia for the past 20 years. Hansen and crew will be creating culinary masterpieces for The Michener Art Museum café, renamed "Max at the Michener" as well as for private onsite events in the Ann and Herman Silverman Pavillion and the Patricia D. Pfundt sculpture Garden and the museum's forthcoming new event pavilion.
He has made a concerted effort to provide sublime food and service across the political spectrum, with the simple philosophy that everyone loves great food. In 2000, he catered then Governor George W. Bush's "whistle stop" train tour between Pittsburgh and St. Louis. In 2003, numbers aside, he took on the challenge of serving 10,000 people during Governor Ed Rendell's Pennsylvania Inauguration.
Recognizing his breadth of experience and unrivaled culinary expertise, the National Constitution Center named his company as its exclusive caterer. In that role he has had the honor and privilege of serving United States Presidents, various Heads of State, Supreme Court Justices and foreign dignitaries. Hansen's focus has always been on serving straightforward food, using the finest ingredients from local purveyors. And the result, sublime food.
During your celebration you and your guests may stroll through our galleries and view works by many well-known regional and national artists. Explore and enjoy as you wander through these galleries of artistic expression. Have questions? Just ask our event staff. Formal tours of the galleries may also be arranged.
