Share our space!

Most of our rooms can be used for private events or gatherings. We are a historic and welcoming place, and our spaces follow suit. All brightly-lit (no basements here!), accessible spaces are regularly cleaned and carefully maintained. If you would like to schedule an event or host a regular group at Christ Church, please fill out the interest form below, or contact our Administrator, Jordan Zappala.

shared spaces

We welcome all types of insured vendors, and a limited A/V set up is available.

Upstairs Classroom – A two-room set-up on the second floor, this space can offer individual tables and chairs or grouped to offer a large meeting-style table.  It’s often used as an add-on to some of our other spaces, and is often used by our youth ministry on Sundays. 

Conference Room – Located off our Parish Hall, this conference-style set-up offers a brightly-lit space to host meetings in-person or via our A/V system, featuring an Owl camera for a better virtual experience.
