REGISTRATION for
ripple 2025
is now Closed
Thank you for your interest in the Ripple Conference.
Registration has closed for the 2025 conference. We hope you will consider joining next February!
The conference
Our goal is to empower and inspire interfaith student leaders.
The Ripple Conference offers time to learn, engage, reflect, and share. Together we will learn about other traditions, including religious, spiritual, and secular worldviews. We will engage in social justice and interfaith dialogue. In smaller community groups, we will share our own perspectives and process the conference experience. Other events within the conference will offer time to share music, stories, and delicious food.
The Ripple Conference offers a balance of structured and unstructured, small and large group events to provide a unique conference experience. We don’t just want to talk about interfaith, we want to make it happen.
We leave you with the question: Where will your ripples go?
2025 Theme:
The Art of Interfaith
We will gather together at Elon University in beautiful North Carolina from February 21-23, 2025 to make interfaith happen.
This year, our Ripple theme is The Art of Interfaith.
At the conference, we will ask: how can different forms of artistic expression inspire interfaith collaboration and creativity? How do various forms of art - music, poetry, dance, crafts, film, photography, and more - from different religious and spiritual traditions foster interfaith dialogue and understanding? What unique creative perspectives exist within each religious tradition that contribute to a richer interfaith experience?
At Ripple, Elon University’s student-led interfaith conference, you can engage with these questions, and more. That’s the ripple effect – giving students a positive multifaith experience that inspires them explore their own identities, ask tough questions, and further engage in sustained interfaith within their own communities.
