About the Venue

Twirl is a nonprofit play-and-discovery space in downtown Taos that blends a small indoor playroom with whimsical outdoor play areas, a toy store, classes, and family programming. It is especially appealing for babies through early elementary ages, with much of the regular programming aimed at children 0-6 and a visit style that feels more community-centered than commercial.
