Beals Studios & Central Shop

Beal Studios is a lab for emerging technologies that help you create whatever you can imagine. So we have eight different 3D printers. We have two laser systems that can both cut and engrave a variety of material. We have two CNC Mills that can create dimensional objects reductively. We also have a tonry TC 2 digital loom that is used to create weavings. We have the equipment, but just as importantly, we have the software, computer stations. Most importantly, the expertise. We have a real focus on education there. You don't come in and order a part and we make it for you. We help you learn how to make it yourself how to incorporate these technologies into your traditional practices to really enable the students to create whatever they can imagine. The central shop is primarily shopped for wood, it's kind of a mirror to Beal Studios, and that has a lot of the same goals of helping students create whatever they can imagine. There's a number of opportunities in the professional world that are arising because of the growth of emerging technologies. And the more unique and robust your skill set is the more hire-able oh boy you'll be. The more tools that you'll have under your belt to create what you want to create.
