Just For Makers
Makers at Heart
If digital making is more your thing you can reserve our Sound Studio to record music, edit film, or make a podcast.
Convert slides, photographs, audio cassettes, and VHS tapes into digital files to preserve family memories using a digitization station in our computer lab.
Monthly programs are offered on a variety of crafts, skills, and technology for beginners and intermediate learners. If a classroom environment isn’t for you, learn at your own pace during our Open Labs in 309 Creative or book a one-on-one appointment for the Sound Studio, Computer Lab, or digitizing stations.
