About Us
Welcome to the Creative Tech Hub, where the worlds of creativity and technology intersect to ignite innovation and foster collaboration. Our hub, founded by Laurence Babington of Mystery Bay and supported by key stakeholders, is a vibrant space dedicated to connecting creative minds with commercial opportunities and promoting cross-disciplinary collaboration among artists, technologists, and entrepreneurs.
Our Mission
At the Creative Tech Hub, we believe that the future lies at the intersection of art and technology. Our mission is to celebrate creativity, support innovation, and provide a platform for community engagement and development. We aim to:
Connect: Bridge the gap between creatives and commercial opportunities, facilitating meaningful collaborations.
Innovate: Inspire and support the creation of cutting-edge projects that push the boundaries of both art and technology.
Educate: Offer workshops and programs that cater to all ages, from children to adults, fostering lifelong learning and skill development.
What We Offer
Studio Spaces for Artists in Residence
Our hub features four studio booths available for lease, including one booth reserved for an artist of our choice at no charge. These spaces provide artists with the environment and resources needed to create and innovate. As an artist in residence, you’ll benefit from a reduced gallery commission and be part of a dynamic community of like-minded creatives.
Art Gallery
Our gallery showcases the work of resident artists and hosts rotating exhibitions, providing a platform for artists to display their creations and engage with the public. The gallery also serves as a venue for our opening exhibitions and other special events, celebrating the diverse talents within our community.
Workshops and Programs
We are planning workshops that offer a wide range of skills designed to inspire and educate. These include:
Hip Hop: Energetic and creative dance workshops for all ages.
Robotics and Coding: Hands-on sessions that teach the fundamentals of robotics and coding, fostering a love for technology in young minds.
Art and Design: Classes that explore various art techniques and design principles, encouraging creativity and innovation.
Entrepreneurship and Small Business: Practical workshops that provide the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in the modern business world.
Our programs will be designed to engage participants through experiential learning, promoting critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration. By integrating the arts into STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) education, we foster the development of well-rounded individuals who are equipped to be the innovators, educators, and leaders of the 21st century.
