Intern (and former Youth Commissioner) Ryan Cerone
produced a 3-D model of the Teen Center, showing both
floors inside. This and other materials are available for exhibits.

Numerous city agencies and community organizations have documented and supported the need for a facility
that addresses the unique needs of the teenage population during out-of-school hours. Hampton’s creation of
a teen center is a dream for more than a decade. Focus groups, surveys and public meetings have all generated
ideas for such a teen-friendly space. The Hampton Youth Commission has held the vision all the while and now
supports it through marketing and, when there’s a fit, HYC grants.
