Registration Details

Ecumenicon Interfaith Conference
(Thursday night - Sunday afternoon)

We are so glad you found this page!

Please note that we are a shared experience, so all students, teachers, and exhibitors are expected to pay something. Some scholarships are available on request.

Note that this conference registration does not cover housing, hotel amenities, meals, snacks, shuttle transportation to and from the site or any other fee. To reserve a hotel room, please call the Comfort Inn, at 301-572-7100.

As we understand that many people are local, housing is not required on site of any person registered. As many people have personal dietary needs, hospitality is limited to snack foods. There are more than 5 restaurants within a 5-minute radius to the hotel and a grocery store. There is no set meal plan for this year’s conference.

A Note about ASL Interpreters: Many think of interpreters as only for the hearing impaired. We think of them as for all of us. An interpreter not only signs for the hearing impaired but voices for the signing impaired, so that all can communicate freely. Please give generously to help ensure clear communications for all classes.
