Sudbury Meetinghouse, Inc. was formed to honor the history of the iconic building located in Sudbury Center at 327 Concord Rd. Built in 1797, the Meetinghouse has always been the center of community life in Sudbury – site of both Sunday Services and Town Meetings until Town Meeting was moved to Town Hall following the separation of church and state in 1836. This historic building has stood at the heart of town for more than 225 years, and we hope the community rediscovers it as a true local treasure—one that can host educational forums, local events, artistic performances, and other activities that bring people together.
The Meetinghouse serves as a gathering place at the heart of Sudbury. Historically, it was where neighbors came together to socialize, deliberate on the town’s needs, and shape the community’s future. While times have changed, that spirit of connection and collaboration is just as important today. Our goal is to bring that tradition back, both in spirit and in practice—by opening the doors for concerts, lectures, workshops, and celebrations, as well as for forums where residents can share ideas and strengthen civic life. We envision the Meetinghouse as a space where people of all ages and backgrounds feel welcome, whether they are coming to enjoy music, learn something new, or simply spend time with their community. Over time, we hope it becomes part of the everyday rhythm of life in Sudbury: a place to gather, to celebrate, and to imagine the town’s future together.
We are pleased that members of the business community, specifically Roche Brothers, the Middlesex Savings Bank and Massarotti Construction are sponsors of this fundraising event. Come enjoy yourselves for the evening while supporting the revitalization of the Sudbury Meetinghouse!
