Carpenters' Hall Anniversary Fund

You can make a difference by donating today to The Carpenters' Company. A National Historic Landmark, Carpenters' Hall was built in the early 1770s and hosted the First Continental Congress in 1774, one of the most significant events in the founding of our nation. We are located in Independence National Historical Park, but the building is privately owned and maintained by the nonprofit Carpenters' Company, which was founded in 1724 and is the nation's oldest continuously operating trade guild. Carpenters' Hall receives around 120,000 visitors annually, and donations enable us to maintain the site and provide free admission.
