Arcata Presbyterian Building Preservation Fund

This fund was created by the Arcata Presbyterian Church to renovate and preserve the historic structures built and dedicated in 1917, at 11th and G Streets in Arcata. The Church, founded in 1861, has served the community for more than 150 years. Today, it is used by local community groups for meetings, yoga, dancing, martial arts and as a regular rehearsal and performance space for the Arcata Interfaith Gospel Choir. The building and its grounds provide for a neighborhood garden, a weekly homeless lunch program, thrift shop and an extreme weather shelter. Whether you're attending an AA meeting, utilizing our indoor gym, worshiping, singing in the Gospel Choir, or taking children to Sunday school, the Church wants to provide an environment that is welcoming and encourages people to create community. Contributions go to maintaining the historic structures, keeping it open and available to all people as part of the organization's mission and service. (2019)
