About Discovery Center at Stony Point™
Discovery Center at Stony Point™ is a welcoming place to explore chess, STEAM, creativity, and community.
Through chess clubs, competitive training, STEAM classes, camps, and special events, we help children, teens, and adults build confidence, think strategically, and discover new interests.

Discovery began with a single chess class in a small room.
From there, it grew into a place where chess connects with science, technology, engineering, art, and hands-on learning. Today, Discovery Center at Stony Point™ brings these experiences together under one roof for learners of different ages, interests, and skill levels.
Our goal is simple: create a place where people feel welcome to learn, try something new, and grow with confidence
