Historic Dupont Chapel

A dramatic spiral staircase and the 2-tone brick walls captivate you while heading up to the chapel. Inside you will find a high ceiling accentuated by dark wooden beams. The overhead ceiling fans help cool the venue during warm days, likewise the tall windows upfront and on one side. Windows open will give you a mix of two eras in 1 space (old & new). NOTE: The space has cooling and heating capabilities (i.e., air conditioning and heater). Spacious, yet favorable for smaller production or on-location photo shoots. A stage and pulpit are ready for any speaking engagement. An upright piano is readily available. In the evening, round crystal light fixtures showcase this venue, giving it an amazing ambiance. Virtual sharing is encouraged in the space, and social distancing is practiced.

In the early 2000s, the church was one of the first to allow same-sex marriages before this was legalized by the Supreme Court.
