Directions: Take the Stillwater Avenue exit (#193) off I-95. Turn right off the exit ramp if you're coming from the south and turn left off the exit ramp if you're coming from the north. At the fourth light (McDonalds and KFC are on the corners), take a right on to College Avenue. Look for the big University of Maine sign and Alfond Arena with the big white roof. Turn left here on to Long Road and proceed up the hill. At the gymnasium, the road curves sharply to the right, and then again to the left. Pass by Beddington and Flagstaff Roads on your right. After Flagstaff, you will see a parking lot and then a wooded area. The Innovation Center is in the wooded area between Jenness Hall and Patch Hall.
Parking permits are available at Bear Necessities in the Alfond Arena (near the entrance to campus).
