The Boston University College of Communication developed the arts center as its "new digital imaging arts program." Bob Daniels, the program's executive director, began his career as a staff photographer for The Patriot Ledger in Quincy and was later executive director of Boston University's Corporate Education Center. The center's certificate programs and workshops were initially designed to complement the College of Communication’s degree programs. Boston University College of Communication's Waltham-based campus since expanded the university's integration with technology.
Boston University decided to terminate its support for the program leading to the center's closing in 2014.
