We have a new look, a new logo, and a whole new attitude for 2026! Why are we making this change now, especially as one of the oldest continuously operating schools in the country? Our previous logo was beloved by many, but it wasn’t always doing us any favors when it came to clearly communicating who we are and what we do at the Eliot School of Fine & Applied Arts. So we decided that our 350th anniversary was the perfect time to create a logo that better reflects what makes this place so special.

Julia Citrin took a spoon carving class with us earlier this year, and can't wait to come back for another one. We talked to her for our October Community Spotlight about what led her to take a class at the Eliot School and what she gained from her experience with us. 

Celebrate 350 years of creativity with us—support arts, crafts, and community through year-round and event-specific sponsorships.

Youth instructor, Lupe Campos is an interdisciplinary artist who teaches youth visual art and woodworking at our Summer Program for Children and in our School & Community Partnerships. We sat down with them for this month’s Community Spotlight to learn more about their experiences teaching young artists through different Eliot School programs.
