This historic 1809 Unitarian Meeting House is an ideal location for weddings of all sizes. Its gracious, rose-upholstered pews seat up to 500. The 1831 Goodrich organ, one of the few remaining that is still in perfect working order with most of its original components, has a beautiful tone that is enriched by the sanctuary’s stunning acoustics. The central interior dome, painted in trompe l’oeil during the 1840s by Swedish artist Carl Wendte, lifts the eye skyward. On either side, sunlight streams through tall windows that retain most of the original glass. The theology of Unitarian Universalism is welcoming to people of all faith backgrounds. Shared values are a roof that shelters a wide variety of religious traditions. We particularly welcome interfaith and GLTB couples. Our Minister, the Rev. Jennifer Brooks, coordinates interfaith services with Cantor Avi Tekken (of Brookline, MA). Cantor Tekken teaches Hebrew school to children of the Island’s Congregation Shirat Ha’Yam, which holds Shabbat services in the Meeting House during the summer months. Fees and terms of use are available from the church office. | |||
