Westbourne Presbyterian Community Church

Westbourne Presbyterian Community Church, commonly known as the Shipyard Church, is a historic building located on Belfast's Newtownards Road, retaining its original appearance since its construction in 1880. It serves as both a place of worship and a performance venue, hosting various community events and exhibitions, including the Titanic People exhibition which highlights the stories of East Belfast's residents.

The church offers free events that delve into significant historical themes, such as the Ulster Covenant and its implications, alongside celebrations marking the Titanic centenary through music, poetry, and drama. With a focus on shared heritage, the exhibitions recount the experiences of individuals from both Nationalist and Unionist backgrounds during pivotal moments in history, including the World Wars and the Troubles.
