YouCreate Lab

The YouCreate Lab is a collaborative and innovative community space with state of the art software and equipment. The lab provides everyone in the community with opportunities to pursue their creative aspirations, whether that is digitizing family slides, creating art, movies, apps, or animation.

Things to Know

The YouCreate lab is an open space for anyone to use (if you are under 12, please come with a parent/guardian).  We invite you to try out the technology and equipment on your own. Our equipment requires maintenance and may be out of service. Feel free to call and check availability. Use this form to make an appointment for one-on-one help.
