The Russian Club at UMBC offers a space for students to connect through language and culture at any level of experience. We host events throughout the year, including Maslenitsa, a Slavic festival marking the end of winter, and Winter Socials featuring music, food, and games. Whether you’re deeply familiar with the culture or just curious to learn more, you are welcome to take part.
