Enriching programming for children and teens is a cornerstone of the HUB.

Academic Support

  • Homeschool Enrichment

    A new program for kids to come and explore -- or, Get Curious! We'll have a new theme every month. Plenty of STEAM activities, access the World Book Encyclopedia Online, TeachRock, and lots more!

  • Pass the Class

    Have a young one struggling in school? We are here to help. Our Pass the Class program provides one-on-one academic support, social-emotional support, and nutritional support to students completely free of charge. Click the link below to enroll in the program, and we’ll get you started.

After-School Activities

  • Scouting

    The West View HUB is the charter organization for BSA Troop 83 and is the meeting location for Girl Scout Troop 52418. We have sponsored several Eagle Scout projects and offer plenty of community service opportunities to Scouts in our community.

  • Board Game Days

    We know that students have a lot to handle these days, so we love to provide a place for them to unplug and enjoy some good old fashioned board games. Bring your own or play one of ours!

  • Dungeons and Dragons

    One of our most popular programs! Dungeons and Dragons is the original role-playing game that encourages players to imagine stories and problem solve. Never played? We will teach you!

Arts

  • Acting Classes

    Steel City Shakespeare’s Youth Academy provides a space for kids of all ages to come together, be creative, explore the art of storytelling through the works of Shakespeare, and find their voice and a sense of belonging among their peers.

  • Monologue & Scene Coaching

    Each winter, Steel City Shakespeare Center offers individual coaching for students wishing to participate in Pittsburgh Public Theater’s Shakespeare Monologue and Scene Contest. We have been proud to produce several winners and honorable mentions in past seasons!

  • Painting Classes

    Middle & high school students are invited to join us for painting classes with a local artist.

Summer Enrichment

  • Shakespeare Summer Camp

    Steel City Shakespeare’s Summer Camp is a weeklong adventure exploring all aspects of outdoor theatre. Each of the age grouped sessions end in a showcase of Shakespearean scenes.

  • Statescations

    Connect with friends new and old while exploring new topics and keeping our brains fresh. Our “Statecations” explore the cultures and geography of different US states.

  • Summer Discoveries

    Daytime sessions filled with STEM experiments and projects sprinkle the HUB’s summer.
