The Epicentre facility is unique. We occupy a 5,600 square foot facility that includes a multipurpose room/performance venue for 525 people, full digital recording studio running ProTools HD, a concert stage, a multimedia computer lab and also serves as a gathering place for youth.

Epicentre programs are built on technology, music, and culture. Each offers a blend of business, entrepreneurship, education, community service, arts, recreation, and socialization opportunities - in a safe and fun environment where teens and adults support each other.

Youth Programs & Enrichment Activities

Our teens have a safe place to gather with friends, take performance and visual arts classes, learn techniques in modern music and explore their creative abilities in a structured environment. Our new Computer Lab offers youth a place to do homework assignments.  Leadership & volunteer opportunities are available to prepare them for success in the future.  Epicentre also has foosball, ping pong and pool tables for local youth to enjoy.
