Our students and faculty perform professional work, and we want to help them become masters at their craft. The Equipment Distribution Center (EDC) loans professional equipment to students and faculty to fulfill class assignments. The EDC manages all Visual & Media Arts and Journalism equipment, with professional staff and student employees available to provide operational and technical support.
The EDC is located at 19 Avery Street, near the Media Arts Gallery at Emerson Contemporary. Our direct number is 617-824-8815 and our e-mail address is edc_staff [at] emerson.edu.
