The Eliot School of Fine & Applied Arts, based in Boston, is a nonprofit that provides education in crafts and creativity for people of all ages. Its Jamaica Plain schoolhouse and annex host classes in woodworking and furniture, sewing and fashion, fiber arts, book arts, painting, drawing, photography, and mixed media. In addition to its in-house offerings, the school sends artisans into classrooms and community centers across Boston to teach youth, and it runs programs such as a teen initiative and an annual Artist in Residence program, along with talks and exhibitions.

Founded in 1676 as a grammar school and later redirected to manual arts in the late 19th century, the school is noted for its long-standing faculty and welcoming environment, with extensive youth programming and small class sizes. It operates as a small to mid-sized nonprofit in Massachusetts, serving a diverse audience through its campus and outreach activities.
