Common Questions

Can I bring my class to the Idea Lab for a tour or in-studio activity?

Our studio spaces vary in size and have strict room capacities, so it is not always possible to accommodate entire classes is our studios spaces. However, we do have options that allow students to visit and experience the studios or equipment. If you are interested in a tour of any of our spaces, please contact us at idealab@humber.ca or fill out the course-support form on this site.

Can I do a block booking of a studio for my students to use?

We prefer students to reserve the spaces for themselves using our quick and simple booking form. This means that:

Students take responsibility for the equipment and spaces during their booking time (so you don't have to!)
Students can book at a time that works for them
Missed bookings or double booking are avoided
Hallway spaces outside studios are not overcrowded
