Oakridge Studio, a center designed to provide access to technology for teenagers, will have a soft opening Friday for the public. The center, located on the lower level of Mainframe Studios, will be open from 5 to 7 p.m. It is funded by the Best Buy Foundation and Amerigroup, and is a member of the Clubhouse Network. It will offer students ages 13 to 21 the opportunity to explore cutting-edge technologies, ranging from music and vocal production, audio engineering, robotics, augmented and virtual reality, 3D printing, graphic design, engraving, drones and more. Students will be able to participate in both collaborative and individual projects, training and workshops. While the goal is to expose students to technologies they might not otherwise have access to, it will also provide opportunities through mentoring and internships to see how they can turn their interest in technology into a career for the future. The center is scheduled to fully open in January.
