</div>

</div>
<div>A Legacy Worth Cultivating
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Built in 1929 by Richard H. Wright II, Whitehall Terrace is more than just a historic mansion; it represents the heart and soul of Durham’s rich cultural tapestry. Situated prominently in Duke Park, this estate holds immense potential to become a thriving hub of wellness, education, art, and cultural engagement for the community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our Vision: A Community Sanctuary
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are dedicated to transforming Whitehall Terrace into a dynamic space that fosters healing, creativity, and community connection. Our plans include:

</div>
<div>•	Developing the surrounding 2.6 acres of land into accessible healing gardens, outdoor art installations, and welcoming community spaces that honor Durham’s diverse cultural heritage.
</div>
<div>•	Creating sustainable, inclusive programming with sliding-scale and free community services, ensuring everyone in our community has access to wellness and cultural enrichment.
</div>
<div><br />
