Bringing resources, support, and education around religion, faith, and spirituality to UVM.

We are celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the UVM Interfaith Center! Join us from noon until 2 p.m. on Tuesday, November 16.

For a decade, the Interfaith Center has served as a space for religious and spiritual practice, connection, learning, and transformational conversations across different faiths, beliefs, and traditions. Throughout our existence, we have advanced student success and mattering, advanced religious accommodation, and partnered with scholars and religious practitioners to create an environment of support, challenge, and growth.

When we explore and experience practices and traditions different from own, we learn more about ourselves. This type of engagement also helps to foster a campus culture that UVM’s lives into Our Common Ground values. 

We hope you will join us for this milestone celebration. And we look forward to future decades of working together to ensure that UVM is a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive community for people of all religious, spiritual, and philosophical traditions. 


 

Holding space to celebrate and explore, faith, beliefs, and religious traditions.

In both the literal and figurative senses of the word, the Interfaith Center offers space to gather, to be brave and inquisitive, and to celebrate. Interfaith has a large gathering hall, smaller lounge space, and smaller spaces for individual practices.

Providing thought leadership in the landscape of the role of faith within our civilization.

Our pluralistic society has been and remains heavily influenced by religious traditions. The Interfaith Center aims to be at the forefront of the conversation around global events by inviting expert voices to our space to share their knowledge and lived experiences.

Bringing resources, support, and education around religion, faith, and spirituality to UVM.

Understanding practices and traditions different from our own is an important facet of creating a culture of belonging at UVM. We invite faculty, staff, and students to bring your questions or concerns to us so that you may learn how to honor the needs of others.
