Our Purpose
Established with purpose
Grace Farms is a humanitarian and cultural center serving local and global communities
It is a place for meaningful interaction where people of all ages, experiences and interests come to collaborate for good and pursue peace within Grace Farm’s 80 acres.
Sharon Prince, CEO and Founder, envisioned that intentionally-designed space could communicate a set of values and advance good in the world for years to come. Pritzker Prize-winning architects Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, of the Japanese firm SANAA, embodied this vision into the design of the River building and barns, creating a site with social and spiritual potential.
The result is a hopeful environment where grace and peace take shape.
How We Work
Our nature, arts, justice, community, and faith initiatives intersect and inform one another at Grace Farms, which increases diverse perspectives and inclusive collaboration. Here, we are committed to address humanitarian issues together, including modern slavery, environmental sustainability, food insecurity, and disconnected communities. This unique approach often leads to unprecedented new outcomes.
Events
Public programs including performances, lectures, community dinners, recreational activities, and tours inspire visitors to experience content from a variety of perspectives, while connecting with one another and exploring our architecture and landscape. Intentionally designed to welcome individuals at every stage of engagement, these programs also provide platforms for activists and advocates to pursue new outcomes for some of the most pressing humanitarian issues of our time.
