Nestled in a wooded corner of campus, this 3,700-square-foot building—along with a 1,500-square-foot covered outdoor gathering space—serves as Westmont’s hub for Christian spiritual formation. Designed to support scholarship, retreats, chaplain training, and special events, the building offers flexible indoor spaces and open-air connections that foster reflection and community. Landscape continuity, natural materials, and abundant daylight, create a warm, welcoming environment for learning and spiritual growth.
“Blackbird designs beautiful, high performance buildings that belong.”
Randy Jones, Emeritus Director of Campus Planning, Westmont College
