Who are we and what do we do?
Located in the basement of the Student Union, the Craft Center is a non-profit, student-staffed facility open to all UMass and Five College community members. We provide tools, materials, and instruction in a variety of
craft areas. The Craft Center is an educational service and crafts supply store. It is a multidisciplinary socio-educational program which fuses business and art. Our primary purpose is to enrich student life on campus by providing crafts instruction programs in a creative and inviting environment. As an art and business agency, our secondary purpose is to teach student staff-members how to manage and participate in all the levels of running such a facility. It is the intention of the Craft Center to cultivate confidence, independence, creativity and self-satisfaction in our staff and membership. We accomplish these goals through daily drop-in
hours,
evening workshops, and
special programing.
