About Us

The Ebbs Chapel Community Center provides a venue for the performing arts, conferences, festivals, weddings, and similar activities, and hosts services for the people of the Upper Laurel community and those beyond, in and on the grounds of the historic Ebbs Chapel School. The Center is managed by the Upper Laurel Community Organization, Inc., a registered non-profit North Carolina corporation with voluntary leadership, dedicated only to the renovation, maintenance and operation of the Center. Activities of the Center are supported and funded by facility rental proceeds, contributions from the community and with the cooperation and support of Madison County, North Carolina.

At the heart of our mission is supporting and hosting services for the Upper Laurel community including a free medical clinic, free community food pantry, a free clothing/household items closet, a designated senior meal site, and voluntary fund-raising events for neighbors in need. The Center also offers the Ebbs Chapel Quilt Group as well as game and exercise rooms for community residents. We also are the home of the annual Blackberry Festival and host community gatherings such as the annual Apple Butter Festival (sponsored by the Bright Hope Laurel United Methodist Church).

Join us by volunteering your time and/or financial support, or join us as a participant in our many activities where we enjoy, celebrate, and assist the wonderful people of the Upper Laurel community.

Help us Plan Your Community Center

As the restoration of the Community Center nears completion, the Board is focused on programming that will bring the Center more fully into the lives of our community. To that end, the Board has reopened last summer's community survey until December 31. If you did not participate last summer please do so now. You may complete the survey received via mail, but may prefer to participate online. Please join this step in the future of the Community Center.
