The CPM lists most of the award ceremonies as being Open Ceremonies, but I also believe it's ultimately up to the chapter as to whether or not it's appropriate for non-members to attend. Lambda Psi's first Sword of Honor ceremony was done with only us in attendance, before a musicale, but the first province day I attended (before we were chartered) included the presentation of an award to one of Theta Beta's sisters, and we were allowed to be in the room. So I've seen it done both ways.
