Teen Activities
Enjoy rock climbing? Never tried before? This is a great place for both beginners and experienced climbers. With 10,000+ square feet of highly featured climbing walls with dihedrals, aretes, stepped overhangs, an awesome slab and lead roofs you won’t ever be left bored.
A day pass to climb is $13. You can get a better rate if you buy a punch card or monthly pass, however those will cost 60 dollars or more upfront.
The Rochester Art Center offers a free teen art studio every Thursday from 3:30 to 5:30. They participate in a variety of activities, from the discussion of contemporary artists’ practices to the production of unique artworks. Their mission is to continue building a community of young artists that believe in the importance of contemporary art to inspire and engage people.
