A 1927 Gothic Revival landmark at Penn, home to campus multicultural centers and restored gathering spaces.
Description
Originally established as the Christian Association at 36th Street and Locust Walk, the Arts, Research, and Culture House underwent a nearly two-year restoration completed in January 2014. The overhaul integrated eco-friendly updates that earned the building LEED Silver certification. Inside, it provides dedicated space for La Casa Latina, Makuu The Black Cultural Center, and the Pan-Asian American Community House, rounded out by flexible common rooms and reservable venues such as the ARCH Auditorium and Fireside Lounge.
