Anime Maryville

While ACE TN is open to all ages, as a group we recognize the crisis of our youth losing their 3rd spaces. Increasingly teens are expected to shell out tons of money just to leave the house for an hour or two. We aim to create a club space all about giving teens a safe, fun spot to hang out, learn new skills, and connect with others. The funds we raise from our market and convention events will help us organize awesome activities, provide supplies, and make sure everyone has the resources they need to thrive. Our current goal is to fund a club location to give our local teens somewhere to go that won't just empty out theirs and their parents bank accounts. So whether it's a donation, sponsoring an event, or spreading the word, every little bit helps make a big impact. Let’s work together to create more opportunities for our future leaders!
