Our Mission is to
Acquire the Monterey Meeting House and preserve it as a historic landmark and a centerpiece of the Monterey Village.
Promote the community’s continued use of the Meeting House for cultural, educational, theatrical, and charitable activities and as a venue for community gatherings.
Adapt and use the building, with its large open spaces, for new activities that complement or expand programs offered by existing Monterey venues.
Who we are:
Monterey Meeting House, Inc. is a group of Monterey residents with diverse backgrounds but a shared commitment to seeing the Meeting House live on as a vibrant center of community activity.
Board of Directors: Mark Andrews, Don Barkin, Maggie Barkin, Wayne Burkhart, Robert Hoogs, Hutch Neilson, Linda Neilson, Kyle Pierce, Morton Salomon, Roger Tryon.
What are we doing:
We have signed an agreement with Steve McAlister of Clark, Green, and Bek Architects to perform a Current Condition Assessment of the Meeting House and to submit a Master Plan, with estimated costs, for improvements that may be needed in the coming years. A report will be available later this year. The study is funded by a generous grant from the Monterey UCC Congregation.
In preparation for the Current Condition Study, we engaged Northeast 3D to produce a 3D computer model of the building for the architect's use.
Monterey Meeting House, Inc. is now a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt public charity.
