Teen Tastic: Movie Night (13-17 yrs)

Teen Tastic will be hosting a Movie Night at the Playhouse and all friends are welcome to wear their pajamas! Also, there will be a popcorn bar for everyone to make a snack to enjoy during the movie.

This group promotes friendship, social interactions, communication through a variety of social activities, outing, and games for teens.  Recommended for all teens ages 13-17. Participants in Teen Tastic gain confidence, leadership skills, and empowerment while working as part of a team or on individual projects and tasks.  If you, or your child, are looking for opportunities to socialize, practice your leadership skills, and be a part of amazing creative projects, then TeenTastic is the right group for you!
