The Church and the Fellowship Building are two separate buildings, which are street-level accessible for all abilities,
with street and lot parking available.
Beautifully situated at the top of the Harvard Common, the Church and its Sanctuary are available for weddings, child dedications, funerals, memorial services, and other ceremonies. The Sanctuary’s superb acoustics offer an exceptional space for recitals, concerts, and other performances.
Church Sanctuary
The sanctuary seats 150 people. Up to 200 people can be accommodated if the church’s folding chairs and the choir loft seating are used. Restrooms and a coat closet are conveniently located off the foyer.
Rental of the sanctuary includes:
*Use of any of the musical instruments is at the discretion of the church’s Music Director. (See Use Policies.)
Need-to-know information:
The Fellowship Building, completed in 2010, is located across a side street from the church, down a long shaded driveway. The building is situated in a lovely, sunlit open space surrounded by mature woods. There is a parking lot at the front of the building.
The back left wing of the building is the home of The Taylor School Annex, a Montessori School for infants and toddlers. Out of respect for the privacy and safety of children, teachers, the program space, furnishings, and equipment, this area is closed at all times to parties renting space in the building.
The available part of the building includes a large foyer, open coat closet, accessible restrooms, a fully equipped “warming” kitchen, and an outdoor patio. Rooms for rent are Sutherland Hall and the Charlanne Van Wormer Community Room which can be rented together or separately. The restrooms and a coat closet are conveniently located off the foyer.
Sutherland Hall
This large function room can accommodate 110 seated at tables. The space is a perfect venue for wedding receptions, celebrations, family reunions, birthday parties, and business functions. It is also available for exercise, yoga, and dance classes.
Between 80-110 people can be accommodated for a formal dinner. Many factors influence the seating capacity, including space for a dance floor, a disc jockey setup, or stage/platform. To accommodate 110 diners, a buffet must be set up in the foyer.
Rental of Sutherland Hall includes:
Warming Kitchen
Adjacent to Sutherland Hall is a large, well-equipped “warming” kitchen for preparing food and drinks for all occasions. The kitchen includes two stoves and ovens, a commercial-grade Hobart dishwasher, several sinks, ample countertop space, large coffee makers, pots and pans, cooking utensils, and more. (See Equipment List.)
