The Maker Space + is a collaborative environment. Located on the first floor of Jewett Hall, it used to explore the intersections between technology, art, and culture and serves as a hub for creativity by providing campus access to specialized tools, technologies, and resources. There are three spaces that make up the Maker space+ – The Makers Space, the VR Lab, and the Digital Storytelling Lab
