TEEN ZONE Rooms

TEEN ZONE Rooms are located in Unit 45. Brightly designed with great artwork and cool quotes, each room has a unique look and feel. The rooms were made possible through the generous donations from the UF Medical Guild.

Each room has an in-room laptop, so you can connect with friends and family 24/7!

Check back soon for photos of each room!

The TEEN ZONE Hallway

As we continue designing more rooms, we will be creating art in the TEEN ZONE Hallway, too! The skyscapes in the hallway will be blue sky with white clouds. This will be a work in progress, as we add photos of teen life both in the hospital and outside. 

 

Graffiti Wall

For Teens only!

This is the white wall from ceiling to floor that stretches between the left wing of 45 and the right wing of 45.  A graffiti artist will be asked to create art once a month and the teens on the floor will add to his/her work.

The Graffiti Wall was made possible by a grant funded by Streetlight Program and Arts-in-Medicine.
