The Thorndale Community Hub & Youth Clubhouse was envisioned by youth living in and around Thorndale to be a place where youth can gather, meet new friends, engage in social activities, and learn new skills. There are currently limited opportunities for youth, and considering the growth of the village we feel that it is important to give these younger residents opportunities and encourage their involvement in fostering a strong vibrant community. Additionally, we recognize that residents of all ages can benefit from opportunities to connect, share ideas and learn from each other and that is why this space is relevant and timely.

Location: 160 King Street, 2nd floor

As of Friday, July 16, 2021 the space is OPEN for use!
