Bouldering Project’s mission is to create fun, inspiring and inclusive climbing, movement, and community spaces. We put human experience and meaningful connection at the center of everything we do. We are quality-obsessed, passionate about creating inclusive spaces, and growth-oriented, driven by the pursuit of better.
