Pop-Up Youth Centre and Activities

River Oaks Community Centre operates a Pop-Up Youth Centre Monday to Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in Community Room B.

The Town of Oakville's youth centres are positive, comfortable and safe places for youth to hang out for free! We'll provide homework workspace, video games, table tennis, music, and more!

We will be popping up around Oakville at various locations to provide supervised, safe, welcoming youth-friendly activities and engagement opportunities.

Youth artists can exhibit their original works at QEPCCC for free!

Are you a young artist between the ages of 11 and 19 looking for space to exhibit your work? The Youth Corridor Galleries at QEPCCC provide a platform for emerging youth artists and students in the community at large.

We are interested in showcasing original artwork, and giving youth the opportunity to gain valuable experience in the exhibition process, to install and display their works, and even opportunities to sell their artwork.

For more information, please contact the Recreation Assistant at QEP Youth Centre at oakvilleyouth@oakville.ca or 905-845-6601, ext. 4681.
