Join us for a behind-the-scenes tour of our programs in traditional

trades! Learn about our history in the North End, including an overview of our

award-winning adaptive reuse and preservation of three architecturally significant 1930s-era structures. We train students in nine full-time programs including carpentry, preservation, bookbinding, locksmithing, furniture making, jewelry making, piano technology, and violin making.

 

NBSS was founded in 1881 as North Bennet Street Industrial School. Our founding mission was to enable immigrants to adjust to their new country by learning the skills needed for gainful employment.

 

For more than a century, the exceptional programs, master faculty and inspiring community have encouraged individual growth, curiosity, technical mastery and commitment to excellence. The school's reputation for excellence and value attracts students from around the world. Free and Open to the Public.
