Come and learn how to ring church bells in the style of English Change Ringing! Pull a rope that swings a bell that weighs half a ton! But don't worry: it doesn't require much strength at all.

Change ringing is a wonderful hobby that involves careful control of the heavy bells to manipulate them into producing the beautiful music of mathematical patterns.

Join the MIT Guild of Bellringers for some handbell fun!

No prior experience necessary.

Whether you're a handbell expert, or have never even seen a bell but want to make music with others, come join us.
Ability to read music preferable, but you by no means need to be an expert sight-reader.

Even if you can't read music, we also ring bells in the style of English Change Ringing. We can teach you everything and then some.
