The Arts Hub is working to create a Digital Makerspace to engage and inspire students in the technological world they live in by providing creative opportunities to think/problem solve in the digital world. The skills and experience using a digital makerspace will help the students now and into the future by growing their creativity and by providing them with the skills that will be increasingly in demand among employers. The Arts Hub will provide a 3D printer, allowing for digital work to become a physical object with the help of a $1,166 grant from Rotary.
