Chapel On Echo Bay

The Chapel on Echo Bay is a historic venue located on Fox Island, WA, that offers a variety of services including weddings, concerts, and events. Our mission is to preserve the legacy of the old Sylvan Chapel as a center for cultural, visual, and performing arts programs. The Fox Island Chapel Preservation Society, a community-based non-profit corporation, owns, maintains, and operates the historic Chapel on Echo Bay.

The Chapel is a popular destination for weddings, with its beautiful century-old sanctuary or garden seating up to 120 guests, and a reception hall overlooking the waterfront. We are also known for hosting concerts, ranging from traditional country to rhythm and blues, as well as authors' readings, piano recitals, and both religious and non-religious ceremonies and celebrations of all kinds.

In addition to preserving the facility as an historic site and heritage center, the Society provides activities including educational programs, recitals, concerts, and other visual and performing arts events. Our roots go deep, reaching back across the century to pioneer families who came to Fox Island from Grinnell, Iowa and started the Congregational Church of Sylvan in 1892.
