Newman Center - Black Hills State University
Year:2018
Location: Spearfish, SD
Located just one block from the Black Hills State University campus, the BHSU Newman Center offers students a welcoming space to strengthen and grow in their Catholic faith. The 16,000-square-foot facility integrates all the essential elements of a Catholic church while also providing spaces for social gatherings, education, residential living, offices, and community meals. Thoughtfully designed to maximize its compact site, the building takes advantage of nearby public school parking and strategic zoning accommodations that balance city and neighborhood needs. The result is a vibrant and inclusive “home away from home” that supports both the spiritual and social development of Catholic and non-Catholic students alike.
