Read more about this location
The Hills Commons is a church-operated Evansville community center that is open to the public and built around family gathering and indoor play. Its biggest draw for visiting families is a large four-story playscape for kids 12 and under, paired with coffee, snacks, free Wi-Fi, and plenty of room for caregivers to sit, work, or meet friends. It feels more like a family commons than a traditional admission-based playground.
