Celebrate the Cumberland’s 132nd birthday! Join the Community Events Center and enjoy tours, cake, and the history of this wonderful building, which is being renovated and will be home to the Cumberland Community Events Center. This event is part of Albany’s celebration of National History Preservation Month.
History of the Cumberland
The Cumberland Church building has been a part of Albany for 130 years. The church was built in 1892 by the Cumberland Presbyterians, a progressive branch of the Presbyterian Church. When it was dedicated on May 5, 1892, it was a rectangular, one-room meeting-style church. The building was moved to its new home on the corner of Santiam and Pine on October 17, 2021. The new address is 1400 Santiam Road SE. Once the restoration is complete, Cumberland will offer educational and enrichment programs for children and families, and provide a facility for the arts, education, recreation, celebration, and locally-based activities. The building will also be available to rent for both public and private events. Read more about the history of the Cumberland at AlbanyCumberland.org.
