A Non-Profit Venue For Every Occasion

The Gathering is owned and operated by a community non-profit — The Hope Center KC. All revenue generated by events held at The Gathering goes back into our youth, family, and community development work.

In response to local needs, The Hope Center has established a medical clinic, an elementary charter school, and expanded its community and youth initiatives. In 2021, they initiated fundraising efforts to restore the church building for use as a community space and venue.

Collaborating with local architects and builders specializing in historic preservation, this stunning space has been beautifully restored to its former glory. We are thrilled to announce the opening of The Gathering KC in 2025, continuing our commitment to provide meaningful environments on the east side of Kansas City.
