What to Expect When Renting at RPCC
RPCC is more than an event venue. We are a community center that serves congregations, nonprofits, small businesses, educational programs, support groups, artists, families, and neighbors from across Baltimore City and Baltimore County. On any given day, multiple groups may be sharing the campus for worship, classes, meetings, celebrations, and community activities.
One of RPCC's greatest strengths is its flexibility. Whether you're planning a family celebration, community meeting, performance, workshop, fundraiser, or special event, our spaces can often be arranged to support your vision. Many renters also choose to combine multiple spaces to create a seamless experience for their guests.
Because our campus is shared by many groups, we ask all renters to help us care for the space and be good neighbors. Events should include adequate time for setup and cleanup, and all spaces should be returned to the condition in which they were found. We also ask renters to be mindful of parking, noise levels, and other activities taking place on campus.
RPCC is an excellent fit for groups seeking a welcoming, flexible, and community-oriented environment. We may not be the right fit for events that require late-night hours, smoking, hard liquor service, or exclusive use of the campus without prior arrangement.
If you're unsure whether RPCC is the right fit for your event, we're happy to talk through your plans and help you explore the available options.
