Although privately owned, The Wyndgate facilities are open to the public for special events and occasions. According to Title II of the Federal Civil Rights Law of 1964, “open to the public” means “all persons shall be entitled to the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, and accommodations of any place of public accommodation, as defined in this section, without discrimination or segregation on the ground of race, color, religion, or national origin.”

Prolly not. Wyndgate may or may not fall within the scope of Title II. Even if it does, it would have to be shown that its action here was prohibited. Unless by "individuals such as Dawkins" meant Brits or white people. (I'm guessing the place might have a few token white members.) I know nothing about civil rights law, but on its face the statute does not address discrimination or exclusion on the basis of ideology or philosophy. So Dawkins would want to argue that atheism is a religion or something, which doesn't sound like him.
