PSA: Beginning June 15, visitors will notice temporary entrance changes at the Neighborhood Guild as the final phase of construction gets underway.

During construction, the main entrance will be closed and fenced off for approximately four weeks while the entrance vestibule is rebuilt. Visitors should use the secondary front entrance located to the right of the building. The elevator will remain accessible throughout the project.

These upgrades are the last step in a project to make the Guild an even better place for everyone who uses it. We’ll keep sharing updates with program participants, camp families and visitors throughout construction. Thanks for sticking with us through our "glow up" era!
