Host an event at HQ!
Have an idea? We occasionally host events at our CultureHouse Headquarters office space and would love to make the space available to you! From live music nights, film screenings, panel discussions and group meetings, our flexible storefront space is available to rent nights and weekends.
Land acknowledgment
The CultureHouse in Union Square sits on the unceded ancestral homelands of the Pawtucket and the Massachusett Peoples, who have stewarded this land for time immemorial. As an organization working in placemaking, we believe that every community owes its existence and vitality to generations from around the world who contributed to this moment. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work in Union Square and as the beneficiaries of the forced removal and genocide of this territory, we pay our respect to elders both past and present, and honor the many diverse Indigenous peoples still connected to this land. This land acknowledgment statement is a way for us, as members of the non-Native community, to recognize the injustice that Native Peoples have endured and, more importantly, to make a commitment to embody justice for Indigenous peoples.
