Along with birthday parties, The Gaga Center provides after-school programs and a Private Pit option, during which people can rent one of three pits for an hour and bring in a small group to play. There are also programs offered when kids have days off from school.
The idea to create The Gaga Center came about when Schmelkin and Singer’s oldest sons learned how to play Gaga at day camp and came home playing it in their living rooms. The two, who are best friends from childhood, saw this as an opportunity to open a space solely dedicated to the game, which originally opened on the Upper East Side 3 years ago.
Prices vary to play and Open Gaga is $25 for kids in grades K-6. There are also classes for preschoolers and parents sign waivers when registering online.
