What is The Garage?
We are a non-profit drop-in space for high school teens. We're a safe space to come hang out with friends, grab a cup of coffee and a snack, play a game, play music, watch TV, talk over homework, and much more!

Who is Allowed at The Garage?
High School-age students only! Besides staff, we try to limit the adult presence in the space, but are more than happy to talk with and give a brief tour to parents/guardians. 

Who Do We Serve?
We serve all high school aged teens. Here, students are not only valued for their differences, but cherished for the unique history, beliefs, traditions, and perspectives they bring to The Garage. To that end, we work actively to connect all students so that every voice can be heard and appreciated. We value each person at The Garage, because respecting our differences and celebrating our diversity only serves to make us stronger as a community.

When Are We Open?

• During the School Year we are open 3:00-7:00 p.m., Monday-Friday.
• During School Breaks (Summer, Winter, Mid-Winter, & Spring Break) we are open 12:00-6:00 p.m., Monday-Friday.

• Check out our Social Media & Google Business Listing for any changes.

What Can Students Do Here?
Students have the freedom to decide what they'd like to do while they're here: 

• Listen to music, make some art, watch TV, read a book, play a video game, solve a puzzle, or play Foosball!
• You can also make a reservation to meet with a counselor, reserve our conference room, or reserve our stage. 

​All of our events are planned in collaboration with the students who wanted to make them happen! Let us know what event you'd like to see next!
