Your gift—whether small or large—directly supports UCSC students working on OpenLab projects.
With your help, we can fund student interns, graduate fellowships, and undergraduate research projects that strengthen critical thinking in the studio, expand creative field practices, and advance lab-based discovery.
Founded in 2010, UCSC’s OpenLab Collaborative Research Center brings together art, science, and technology to spark bold interdisciplinary innovation and engage with today’s most pressing ecological and social challenges.
OpenLab students gain dynamic, hands-on experience tackling urgent, real-world issues through creative research. Your support empowers the next generation of problem-solvers to imagine and build more sustainable futures.
