Newcomer Youth Centre (NYC)
What's New at the NYC?
Hamilton’s best, new urban space for newcomer kids! The Newcomer Youth Centre is dedicated to the settlement, development, integration and empowerment of Hamilton's newcomer youth! NYC offers a comfortable, social environment to interact or lay claim to some inner peace. Play Wii or Playstation 3 games, watch Blu-ray movies, get a board or card game going, challenge someone at foosball, partake in arts & crafts, kick a ball around on the pitch, listen to music - just about anything you can think of doing with your leisure time.
Be sure to check out the the calendar at the bottom of this page. NYC events are in orange.
