Our Big Five
LOCATION & POPULATION
To be a place where people gather, we need to be near people; what better place to build community than in the center of Taunton, right on Main Street?! From folks who work downtown, to neighbors walking around, to fellow small business owners and employees down and across the street, and everyone in-between, we want to know our neighbors, serve them well, and invite them in to The Center on Main for food and drink, conversations and friends, meetings and play. In this place, we want to discover all the dreams that can come alive when people gather together.
REVITALIZATION OF DOWNTOWN
As downtown Taunton is being revitalized through various efforts from the city, the Downtown Taunton Foundation, and the Taunton Business Improvement District (BID), we couldn't be more thrilled for the opportunity to create a new space downtown at this particular time and, ultimately, to contribute to the revitalization of this historic area. We strive to contribute to this effort in all the ways that The Center is able, by creating another place where people want to gather, where languages and classes are taught, where people's dreams are lived out, & where community grows.
COMMUNITY
At the heart of The Center is community. We believe community is more than just people in the same place or having something in common. Community is people sharing the load with one another; helping when it is needed most; collecting resources and sharing them with those who are going without; doing life together, from celebrating to grieving to walking hard and narrow roads. This is the depth of community we hope to foster at The Center and we believe this is the hard but beautiful way of life that changes lives and transforms people and places for the better.
EDUCATION
The Center will be a place where education is valued, celebrated, & shared. Whether classes, tutoring, conferences, or events, there will be space at The Center for various educational opportunities. The multipurpose rooms on the first floor will lend themselves well to small and medium size classes; the open lounge area and the youth center will be great spaces for tutoring and teaching; the open lounge area could be rented for a larger speaking or teaching event, as well. We hope these are just a few starting ways education will be pursued at The Center.
YOUTH
Of the people we will have the opportunity to meet, serve, impact, and know through The Center, we are especially excited to connect with youth in the area. We desire to be a place that invites in and welcomes the young people around us, for the sake of growing them, challenging them, and, hopefully, being a place where they find belonging, identity, friendship, and support. From tutoring opportunities, classes, and youth events, The Center will not be complete without the life, excitement, and joy of young neighbors deeply intertwined in its midst.
