Building History

The Diocesan House was the admininstrative headquarters of the Episcopal Diocese of Northern California, but this changed in 2007. According to the Diocesan House web site: "In 2007, Bishop Marc, with the help of curator and visual artist Mel Ahlborn, transformed the walls Diocesan House — the administrative offices of the Diocese of California — into an art gallery. Portraits of former bishops have been replaced with exhibits from artists within DioCal or connected to a DioCal ministry. Each exhibit offers a visual reminder of the diocese’s commitment to both contemplation and action. Bishop Marc states, 'bringing these creative works inside on a regular basis helps people understand that this is a house, a home for our hopes and aspirations in the Diocese of California.'” (See Episcopal Diocese of California.org, "Gallery 1055," accessed 10/29/2019.)
