Meeting Spaces
The Neighborhood Preservation Center has two meeting rooms for weekday, weekend, and evening use by groups working toward the preservation and improvement of the urban environment. Since opening, over 110 groups have used the Center for organizational meetings, workshops, and other uses.
Each room holds approximately 20 people. The two rooms are connected by a 5’10" sliding door to form a larger space that can accommodate 40-45 people maximum.
Audiovisual equipment and kitchen facilities are available. The user group is responsible for any set up and clean up of the meeting room and kitchen.
Please note that receptions and exhibitions are not permitted.
Room Dimensions:
Meeting Room One (The Purple Room) is 15’ x 17’10’’
