Physical Location:
CRSP's The Gathering Space (Center for Well-Being, 103)

The Gathering Space serves as a spiritually-centered space where students and UMBC community members can gather at the intersection of religion, faith, spirituality, and other lived experiences. The Gathering Space prioritizes individual religious practice, opportunities to explore holistic well-being connected to religion and spirituality, and creating opportunities to engage across difference, by centering the importance of interfaith work and dialogue. Within the GS, three core themes are emphasized: radical love & belonging, spiritual well-being, and energetic pluralism. The Gathering Space opened Fall 2022 and works with all UMBC students, including 33+ religion and belief organizations.
