Overview

Mission

Pigtown Climbs is a community driven organization and space that uses climbing and sustainable programming to foster black liberation, promote wellness, and connect the communities of Southwest Baltimore to the outdoors. We hope to expand this mission into a physical outdoor climbing and community space that our neighbors can grow in for years to come. This space and our programming exist to uplift self-identified black and brown folks, minimize barriers to getting outdoors and prioritize accessibility.
