Beck Cultural Exchange Center — Attraction in Knoxville

First off i love the center. But that ceo they have there now thats another story. She came at us on her first time as an arogant rude and really angry. We were there for my brothers wedding and when they first reserved the center the ladies showed them the room each would use well every thing started off great until this ceo came in then it all goes down hill fast first she complains about us being in the room we was in then the table cant nothing touch the table then she rushed the bride to get finish with her make up and then sent her into a bathroom stall to put on her dress this was by far the worst conduct of bussiness i have ever experienced. I would not reccomend any one to do any events there thats just my experience and how i felt fron the way she treated us now the other employees there were awsome very helpful but her no i would never send any one there for any type of event so if i could give them no stars i would but i had to...

On Friday, March 14, 2025, the AKA sorors who joined Zeta Delta Chapter in the Fall of 1975 celebrated their 50th Golden Celebration at the Beck Cultural Center. The event was absolutely fantastic.
