2025 Annual Report

2025 Annual Report

The 1816 Farmington Quaker Meetinghouse celebrated a banner year in 2025, achieving major restoration milestones with the completion of a new roof, structural repairs, and façade improvements through state, federal, and private support. The organization doubled its educational programming, hosting twelve public programs focused on equal rights, social justice, and local history while strengthening partnerships throughout the Finger Lakes region. Significant progress was also made toward a long-term capital campaign to fully restore the Meetinghouse, develop exhibits, expand public access, and establish the site as a premier heritage tourism destination. Through expanded research initiatives, increased public visibility, growing community support, and nearly half a million dollars invested in restoration work, the organization continued advancing its mission to preserve and share the Meetinghouse’s nationally significant role in the movements for equality, justice, and peace.
