Churches function as community anchors and gathering points even for non-congregants. How can the community help in sustaining and enhancing these important places? What are the methodologies and strategies for the public to respectfully and helpfully engage with the worship community? This program will discuss the role of historic churches in Harlem and the community’s involvement in the reimagining of their social and architectural features, so that they might continue to thrive and serve their greater community for generations to come.
