Youth Programs
PACTL's youth programs are free, fun and co-created with the young people themselves - youth lead, create and belong. Every program is led by supportive adults in a safe, supervised space and is open to youth ages 5 to 18 at no cost.
Bimonthly gatherings in our large game room where youth play board games, video games and tabletop adventures together.
Youth musicians form bands, write songs and rehearse with mentorship from local artists.
Youth help design Ignite Youth programming, lead violence-prevention efforts and shape the future of PACTL's youth work.
Teens learn to run Dungeons & Dragons and other tabletop games, coaching younger players through play.
After-school art classes and music programs give youth space to create and explore their talents.
Special events and outings take youth to sports, culture and new community adventures.
Art, music and game design give youth a place to express themselves.
Youth co-design programs and apprentice as game masters and mentors.
A safe, welcoming game room and peer community where everyone has a place.
