Sirrine House

Built in 1896 by one of the original settlers of Mesa, the Sirrine House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. The goal of the redesigned site is to activate the surrounding landscape for programmed site uses as a gathering place for food, music, education and art. Restoring urban farming use on site that recalls the way the site was originally used. Educational spaces and interpretive exhibits are included throughout the grounds. A demonstration kitchen is available for educational programs. Future ‘farm-to-table’ pop-up restaurants are planned for the site.

The redesigned Sirrine House is a harmonious blend of heritage preservation, environmental sustainability, and innovative design. Seamlessly integrating old and new, the space honors the past and embraces the future. In its first year the Center received 1.1 million visits, up from the prior year by 17.2%.
