Bringing​ the west philadelphia​ community​ together

schedule a tour

Learn more about the rich history of the Calvary United Methodist Church building and see first-hand how Calvary Center for Culture and Community (CCCC) and other organizations housed here work to improve the quality of life in West Philadelphia.
Small groups are invited on a guided tour to experience the treasures housed in our community’s 1906 landmark, including:
  • the two largest signed Tiffany window ensembles in Philadelphia
  • original woodwork, scagliola columns, and a magnificent suite of leaded and stained glass windows throughout
  • two magnificent stained glass domes (one yet to be restored to position)
  • murals, both victorian and modern
  • Brother’s O’Dell organ
  • H. Hanley Parker’s enormous mural, “Sermon on the Mount”

Contributions from tours support CCCC’s building restoration fund and future programs that enhance the quality of life for all West Philadelphians.
Renting space for weddings, bar mitzvah’s, private parties, and conferences helps support Calvary.
​Schedule a tour by contacting Ed Fell, Monday through Friday from 10 am to 2 pm at 215-724-1702
