Pihlajamäki Youth Centre

Introduction

Pihlajamäki Youth Centre is full of activities and hustle and bustle. Do not hesitate to come join our activities!

You can come engage in a hobby, play or simply hang out with your friends. Youth workers are present to provide help and guidance, and you get to decide for yourself what you would like to do. The activities are free of charge. The only thing you need is a membership card that you can get online.

Come and play

In the youth centre’s console game room, you can play a variety of games alone or together with your friends. We have a sports hall where you can play floorball or light football with your friends or a youth worker. The facility also includes a large mirror for dance enthusiasts.

Handicrafts in an open studio space

There is an open crafts studio at the youth centre. There you can engage in many types of handicrafts, such as ceramics, felting, fabric printing and all sorts of other handicrafts.

Book the band room

You can book the band room for your band rehearsals or your own music lessons. You can go play there with your band or random ensembles any time when the room is vacant. The band room is equipped with electric drums, an acoustic guitar, a couple of electric guitars, bass and guitar amplifiers and a sound system.

The youth centre is for you: join us in planning and implementing activities that are of particular interest to you!
