Community Spaces at RISD
A person's faith and religious life can be a significant part of their identity. ISE is committed to assisting those who wish to continue their religious/spiritual practices while at RISD. We provide resources to help members of the RISD community connect with their religious community in the Providence area.
Please connect with our office if you would like accommodations for observing a specific holiday,
or if you have an idea for religious/spiritual programming!
Brown University has many religious and spiritual offerings that are available to RISD students.

away from the bustle of campus and studio.

Feel free to enjoy our Resources in the Ewing Community Lounge! Our shelves are full of media with topics focused on different identities.
