Ben's Bells Newtown Studio
Come into the new Ben's Bells Studio in Newtown to help spread kindness
through the creation of Ben's Bells. Our Studio is open every Wednesday
from 6-9pm and Saturdays from 12-4pm. Food and beverage are welcome
into the studio to make a fun-outing for you and your friends!
While we never charge for you to come and make bells, we do rely solely on
donations, so we kindly suggest a donation of $5 or whatever you can
spare for our donation jar. Your donation will continue to help us
provide the materials needed to create Ben's Bells and also fund our
kindness programs in schools, Kind Kids and Kind Campuses.
Nationally renowned, Ben's Bells are brightly colored ceramic works of art that
are randomly hung in public places that bear a tag instructing the
person who finds the bell to take it home and to remember to be kind.
In our studio, you will either form beads with clay or have the
opportunity to glaze beads. The bells you make will eventually be
distributed in Connecticut to fulfill their purpose of spreading
kindness, one interaction at a time.
Our team of volunteers will be staffing the studio and we encourage everyone to drop in during our
regular studio hours. We will also have after-hours availability for
private group events. For those who would like to participate in bell
making outside of the studio, with a group of friends, we will have
"to-go" boxes available for a small donation.
