Rentals
Looking for a space to rent? Eliot Chapel offers affordable, accessible spaces that can accommodate large group events like weddings, child dedications, concerts, and memorial services. We also offer smaller spaces appropriate for meetings and workshops, including technology for presentation or on-line participation.
Church members in good standing (and members for at least 6 months) can use Eliot Chapel for weddings or memorial services at no charge (although some peripheral fees apply - see chart below). Church members can also rent or use space at Eliot for non-church related external events at a discounted rate, depending on the purpose of the event. Non-members or outside non-profit groups may rent the space at our regular rate.
