A Church Salida's Venue
We believe in the power of community to create positive change.
A Church, Inc is a REGISTERED 501c3 community project that works to promote connection and provide an open space for nonprofits, civic groups and individuals working for positive change.
In 2016, local resident Sheree Beddingfield purchased the church with a vision of preserving the HISTORIC building while supporting community arts, recreation, social service and education efforts. She envisioned an inclusive gathering space that could be used for organizing, for celebration, for mourning, and connecting with others.
We are an open-minded, open-hearted place to gather with others to share ideas, deepen our understanding, connect with people that we live with and to consciously give back to the town of Salida that we love. WE ARE PROUDLY LGBTQ+ FRIENDLY
A Church also hosts weddings, events, private parties, lectures/discussions, THEATER and music. Our stage, sound and lighting will make A Church the VENUE for you. WE ARE LOCATED in downtown Salida, Colorado.
