Maryland Masti is an annual intercollegiate Garba/Raas competition held by the students at the University of Maryland, College Park. Our goals include spreading awareness of the traditional folk dance cultures of the West Indian State of Gujarat, providing an outlet for current students to express their passion for such dance, entertaining the guests at our show, and having a great weekend -- staff, teams, and audience alike!
College Park's very own gospel choir is committed to encouraging Christian growth, fellowship, leadership and community service. The group brings gospel music favorites to the UMD campus and surrounding areas.
The 2018 Black Theatre & Dance Symposium will be a fresh experience, with new topics, dynamic speakers and exciting workshops. We will champion women’s voices with two dynamic keynote speakers, thereby underscoring our call for more gender and race parity, inclusion and diversity. Speared by these female voices, in this climate of #MeToo and #TimesUp, we will explore the unique power of theatre, dance, and performance studies to highlight issues of equity and social justice in today’s cultural and political environment.

Music for Food is a musician-led initiative that started in Boston and has since spread across the US. Its goal is to create awareness about hunger insecurity in America and to partner with audiences to raise money through donation-based concerts. The artists who perform receive no fee and the concert tickets are free with a kind request for any donation, 100% of which is then donated to a local food pantry or food bank.
