The Arts, Research, and Culture House (ARCH)

This landmark was built in 1927 as the Christian Association. The nearly two-year restoration of the Arts, Research, and Culture House (ARCH) concluded in January 2014, breathing new life into the historic, late-Gothic Revival structure in the heart of Penn’s campus at 36th Street and Locust Walk. For environmentally friendly improvements, the ARCH received a LEED Silver certification. This building houses the multicultural centers: La Casa Latina, Makuu, and the Pan-Asian American Community House (PAACH). See the listings below for common areas and reservable rooms in the building.
