Community Involvement

All About Community

Community is at the heart of everything we do at Austin Bouldering Project. Through partnership with our affinity groups, monthly contribution nights, community events and more, we aim to give back to the incredible community which makes ABP such a vibrant place.

Plus, we love throwing parties and seeing our community show up and show out! From climbing competitions to vendor markets, trivia nights to yoga & fitness challenges, we’ve always got something exciting going on. See our upcoming events here.
