The Baha’i Faith teaches that every individual can investigate religious and spiritual truth. During your visit, you are free to explore the Baha’i Faith’s unifying teachings, including the oneness of humanity, the common threads among all major religions, and the connection between the human spirit and the betterment of the world.
You are invited to browse our displays, watch introductory films, peruse the bookstore and ask questions of the tour guides.

You are welcome to use our Fireside Room to read, visit with your friends and family, or engage in discussion with our tour guides.
