A historic, LGBTQ+ affirming community hub in Washington D.C. offering radical hospitality, advocacy, and social events for the queer community.
Located in the heart of the vibrant Dupont Circle neighborhood, Foundry United Methodist Church stands as a historic beacon of radical hospitality and social justice in Washington D.C. While it is a house of worship, it functions as a vital community center for the local queer population. As a 'Reconciling' congregation, Foundry has been a pioneer in LGBTQ+ inclusion since 1995, offering a safe and affirming space for gay men, trans individuals, and the entire queer spectrum. When exploring our gay map for meaningful connection in the capital, Foundry is a standout destination. The venue hosts a dedicated LGBTQIA+ Advocacy team, monthly queer potlucks, and inclusive small groups that bridge the gap between faith and activism. It is also the proud home of the annual Capital Pride Interfaith Service. Whether you are seeking spiritual nourishment, social justice opportunities, or a queer-friendly space to meet like-minded people, Foundry United Methodist Church welcomes you with open arms. Its commitment to equality makes it much more than a church—it is a cornerstone of the Washington D.C. LGBTQ+ community landscape.
