History of the Community Gallery and Parkside Cafe
Although Springfield boasts a number of cultural and educational organizations, there are few in this section of the city. The Community Gallery was opened following the pandemic to provide a space for local artists to share their work and to fulfill the mission of the builders of the church to be a "community cathedral"
Trinity Community Gallery supports the art of local artists and Springfield Public School students.
The cafe is currently a meeting place for fellowship hour on Sunday mornings. Locally roasted coffee by Monsoon Roasters in Springfield is freshly ground in the Trinity kitchen. Tea is also available.
