To make community events more inclusive and accessible, The City has unveiled a unique sanctuary within its bustling Town Center: the Break Room. This new, sensory-friendly space has been designed to serve as a quiet refuge for anyone in need of a break from the lively atmosphere of ongoing events, furthering The City's dedication to accommodating all members of the community.

The Break Room finds its home inside the City’s Police/Safety Building at 3360 Park St., situated explicitly in what is known as the Mayor's Court. It's a resource that promises solace during times when sensory overload may threaten to overshadow the enjoyments of Town Center gatherings. According to a statement from the Grove City, the spot is "Open during Town Center events," making it readily available when the need is most acute.

To enhance the sensory-friendly experience, visitors have an the option to check out special sensory-friendly bags provided by KultureCity during the designated hours. For those seeking further information about the Break Room, inquiries can be directed to Maddison Mattey, the Adaptive and Inclusive Coordinator, by calling 614-277-1061.
