CREATE Portage County accelerates creativity, connection, and collaboration to advance vibrant and welcoming communities.

The IDEA Center encourages residents to invest in their creative ideas and expand entrepreneurship to include the arts, business, community impact, and personal development. CREATE is committed to dismantling demographic barriers that have historically limited access to creative work by offering the following to IDEA Center users:

  • Collaborative space. Host an event, conference, or collaborative meeting at the IDEA Center and bring people together. Multiple spaces are available for free to our IDEA Center Users, or for a small fee to non-Users.

  • Design lab. IDEA Center Users have access to top notch software and independent working space to support their work. Our workstations include the full Adobe Creative Suite and 3D modeling programs.

  • Maker spaces. From audio recording to 3D printing, we provide our Users the tools to innovate and share their work.

  • A continuously evolving network. Innovation is fluid and responsive. Users develop ideas and passions as part of a community in the IDEA Center.
