The laboratory includes the DeWitt Gallery, a flexible public venue for educational displays in both traditional and digital formats; a Collaboration room where researchers can share ideas related to the intersection of humanities and technology; and a digital production room with a video studio and professional audio equipment.

The Collaboratory will be open by appointment only for the summer 2026 semester.
