What's on for teens

Upper Hutt Libraries offers teens a place to spend time, try new things, and connect with others, without pressure to perform or fit into a particular mould.

Teen events range from creative and social activities to games, clubs, and workshops that support learning, wellbeing, and self-expression, while leaving plenty of room to take part at your own pace.

Whether you come along with friends or on your own, these sessions are about having options, feeling comfortable being yourself, and knowing the library is a place you can return to whenever you need it.
