MCC Manitoba’s New Home in Winnipeg’s Exchange District

Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) Manitoba serves local community organizations in Manitoba while contributing to MCC’s wider ministries of relief, development and peacebuilding outside of North America. Number TEN was engaged to assist in the campus relocation search and evaluation, and to lead the design of new tenant facilities for the chosen location in the Exchange District at 140 Bannatyne Ave.

The project amalgamates three distinct programs at the new location: administrative and program offices over two floors, a main floor café that provides training opportunities for youth with barriers to employment, and a Materials Resources program for the assembly of disaster relief kits.

A central “Flex” space connects the café and offices physically, to be used collaboratively by all three programs as a staff training space, café event space, and a work and display area for the disaster relief materials.

The design of the new facility celebrates the culture of MCC and it’s programs, creating an open and welcoming environment for a new generation of volunteers and collaborators.
