History\, restoration\, and a new chapter are coming together for a very special celebration in Durham!
\n\nJoin the Greater Durham Chamber of Commerce for the Ribbon Cutting Celebration of the beautifully renovated O&rsquo\;Kelly Chapel at For Garden&rsquo\;s Sake.
\n\nOctober 16 carries special historical significance\, marking 200 years since the death of James O&rsquo\;Kelly\, the influential minister and religious leader for whom O&rsquo\;Kelly Chapel is named. This celebration will honor that history while officially welcoming a new chapter for this treasured space.
\n\nNestled on the grounds of For Garden&rsquo\;s Sake\, O&rsquo\;Kelly Chapel is a historic early 1900s chapel filled with character and charm. For Garden&rsquo\;s Sake has thoughtfully renovated and restored the chapel\, helping preserve an important piece of local history while transforming it into a beautiful event venue available for weddings\, ceremonies\, celebrations\, private gatherings\, and other special occasions.
\n\nFor Garden&rsquo\;s Sake has served the Durham and Triangle community since 1999\, offering a destination garden center along with landscaping\, design\, installation\, maintenance\, and outdoor services. Their involvement in restoring O&rsquo\;Kelly Chapel is another example of creating spaces where history\, nature\, community\, and celebration can come together.
