Celebrate Aromantic Awareness Week with the Aro/Ace CenterSpace! Learn about aromantic identities and build community across UM's three campuses. Allies and members of the a-spectrum community are welcome.

What is Aromanticism? Aromanticism is a romantic orientation, which describes people whose experience of romance is disconnected from normative societal expectations, often due to experiencing little to no romantic attraction, or sometimes feeling repulsed by romance or being uninterested in romantic relationships.
