2021 Altar Restoration Project
The Two Centre Street Restoration Project, Inc., the secular non-profit that since 1995 has been raising funds to restore this historical Nantucket building we use for our services, has completed a major project to restore and paint all the sanctuary facing altar white wood work, plus replacement of all of the altar and aisle carpet. The first five pictures show the restored altar woodwork and new carpeting. The last two pictures show the old worn out carpet and the woodwork before restoration.

Two Centre Street Restoration Project
Two Centre Street Restoration Project, Inc., is a secular nonprofit organization governed by an independent board of directors dedicated to the restoration and preservation of the Nantucket United Methodist Church building. This majestic Greek revival structure sits grandly at the top of Main and Centre Street in downtown Nantucket, Massachusetts.
The organization formed in 1995 as an independent coalition of church members and non-church community volunteers with expertise in historic preservation, construction, finance and development in order to save and restore this historically significant structure that nearly deteriorated beyond repair.
The work that has been accomplished over the past 25 years has been under the guidance of experienced restoration and preservation architects along with skilled members of the building trade all with the same goal of keeping its’ structural integrity intact. Since inception, Two Centre Street Restoration Project, Inc. has funded over $2 million in projects to restore the interior main sanctuary and the exterior of the building. There still remains significant work to be done.
Please consider donating to help restore this important Nantucket building.
