Better Together

ARC is working with Volunteers of America Western Washington on the design for a new community center in Lynnwood, WA. The new center will provide opportunities for recreation, special events, community meetings, training, preschool, adult day program, and support services.

The primary gathering space in the Neighborhood Center is designed around an interior courtyard similar to a traditional piazza or zocalo.  These places have a strong sense of community and support, where different generations can all come together. The center will provide space for the Boys & Girls Club, as well as a gymnasium, multipurpose event space, teaching kitchens, preschool, classrooms, and services for community members.

The Lynnwood Neighborhood Center is currently in the fundraising stage. Rick Steves is an initial investor in this project.
