Today was the official groundbreaking for #RIT's new #music performance #theater! The 40,000-square-foot building will enhance opportunities for students to pursue both #STEM and performing #arts instead of being forced to choose just one area of study. brnw.ch/21wCkUW

Kudos to our partners at @RITMAGIC, as well as @2ndAveLearning and @museumofplay who hosted students that attended this camp for tours! #RIT + #ROC #gamedev #indiedev
This summer we hosted a game design camp for students from #ROC charter schools: Vertus, UPrep Rochester Prep. These students embraced our motto of #welearnbymakingthings and each of them designed their own games. TY Rochester Community Media for this doc youtube.com/watch?v=tcof-lAa…
