Situated in the heart of Columbia, MD, and centrally located in the Baltimore/Washington, DC corridor, The Meeting House is a public event venue that offers rooms ranging in size from 4,500 sq. ft. to 125 sq. ft. The multi-functional meeting spaces feature neutral décor and allow for a wide variety of setups and room configurations to accommodate any event. With all of its amenities on one level and no steps, The Meeting House offers versatile conference and event space that is accessible to everyone. Food and beverage service is permitted in all rooms. The recently renovated kitchen features commercial-grade appliances and a rear caterer’s entrance with parking bay. The two largest rooms and Atrium Gallery have direct access to the kitchen.

If you are interested in worship space rental or long-term leasing options, contact Mike Shaw at 410-730-4090 or [email protected]. Established in 1975, The Meeting House was built to house five autonomous religious congregations that form the Oakland Mills Interfaith Center (OMI). The OMI congregations share The Meeting House facility for weekly services, special events, and office space. The Meeting House is also home to a weekday preschool and kindergarten that rents the 7,500 sq. ft. classroom space. To offset the operating costs to the congregations, the facility is available for rent as a special events venue or for long-term rentals. No religious iconography or artwork is on permanent display in the public areas of the facility. The OMI congregations are shareholders in Oakland Mills Interfaith, Inc., a non-profit corporation that owns and operates The Meeting House. Volunteers from the five congregations serve on a Board of Directors to oversee operation and management of the facility. A management and maintenance team is responsible for day-to-day operations. All revenue from facility rentals is used to offset the operating cost to the equity-holding congregations. Mike Shaw, Building Manager, provides expertise in the amenities and technical capabilities of the facility. Mike is also the contact for worship space and long-term leases: 410-730-4090 or [email protected]. Victoria Galindez, Maintenance Supervisor, and her team provide set up and clean up for events as well as support during events. Kisha Pryor, Administrative Coordinator, handles the administrative details for our rental customers. Ellen Budd, Event Manager, is your contact for making an event booking: 443-510-7076 or [email protected].
