Wonderful news from the Historical Society!
We have officially bought the historic former Grace Episcopal Church in the heart of Mexico! After almost 18 months of waiting, the final legal paperwork was signed on May 29, 2026 and it's all ours now!
We are incredibly proud to be able to preserve this significant local landmark for the entire community of Mexico.
Our vision is to use the building as an event center and meeting facility, creating a wonderful new space for local gatherings and activities, while preserving its history.
Over the coming weeks you'll see the doors wide open and lots of activity inside. The sanctuary will remain mostly the same and may be used for weddings, concerts, plays, and who-knows-what-else. The space inside the entrance will be undergoing some significant and much-needed remodeling so it may be used for small gatherings, meetings, and some space to exhibit the history of the building.
The 1874 Steere and Turner pipe organ will be tuned, returning it to tip-top condition.
Much more information will be posted as we work our way through the renovation of this historic building!
