Many student groups use the Lemelson shop and facilities – click on the name to be directed to their individual websites:

The Blacksmith Guild
The Blacksmiths’ Guild is a collective of Hampshire students with an interest in forging. The forges are run by students who are on hand to help teach the basics of blacksmithing and to give tips on making the perfect piece.

The Glass Collective
We are a group of students interested in the art and craft of glassblowing.  We do the best we can to share this interest by training students to do lampworking, a method of blowing glass.  We maintain, improve and put to full use the limited glassblowing facilities in the Lemelson Center.

Zap! Electronics Group
