Third spaces are places other than home (our first space) or work/school (our second space) where we can go to be with people we know or don’t yet know, where we feel comfortable and relaxed around others. Research points to the critical need for third spaces to increase individual wellbeing and strengthen the social fabric of communities (here are a couple articles), especially when they are spaces we go regularly. The new Third Space Baltimore is housed in a historic former synagogue called Shaarei Tfiloh on Liberty Heights Avenue by the zoo. It is designed to be a gathering spot grounded in Jewish culture and learning, welcoming to all, and connected in intentional and meaningful ways to the neighborhood around it. It aims to be a gateway (shaar means gateway in Hebrew) to meaningful engagement and a relational community builder. At the Third Space ribbon cutting, Governor Moore celebrated this important new space where everyone can belong, noting that our culture spends so much time dividing us, but that as the old adage goes, “divided we can’t win and united we can’t lose.”
