Grace Farms Foundation

Grace Farms Foundation was established in 2009 as a private operating foundation with 501c3 status in New Canaan, Connecticut. The Foundation supports initiatives in the areas of nature, arts, justice, community, and faith, and encourages participation on a local, national, and global level. Grace Farms Foundation carries out its work principally through the publicly available facilities and integrated programs of Grace Farms, an 80-acre property owned and operated by the Foundation, where individuals and not-for-profit organizations can come together to collaborate for good.Located in Fairfield County near the New York border, Grace Farms is a new cultural and community center encompassing 80 acres of open space. SANAA’s River is an architecturally significant building recently nominated as “2016 Building of the Year” (Architect’s Newspaper). Grace Farms is accessible and free to the public six days a week, with meaningful program offerings, performing arts events, recreational spaces for all ages, publicly available art installations, walking trails, an indoor basketball court, gathering spaces with food and beverage, activities for kids, a public garden, faith events, a library and a state-of-the art indoor amphitheater.Photo: © Dean Kaufman
