Teen Hangout

Teen Hangout gives middle and high school students a chance to unwind after school in a supervised, welcoming space. Teens in grades 6–12 can drop by to enjoy activities and games with peers, with no need to sign up ahead of time. It's a relaxed environment where students can simply show up whenever works with their schedule. The program runs for 90 minutes, giving teens time to decompress and have fun in a safe setting. Library staff will be on hand throughout. If your teen has questions about what to expect, or if they need specific accommodations—whether physical or related to communication—the Mechanicsville Branch Library team is happy to help. You can reach out by email or phone to discuss any details beforehand.
