Description:
At Beam Camp kids aged 6-17 learn to make their ideas happen through fine and manual arts, technology and collaboration. Every summer campers collaborate on the spectacular Beam Project and engage with our full-time and visiting staff of professional architects videographers, builders, engineers, designers, and makers of all kinds. They learn the tools, techniques and temperaments of creation to apply to their own plots, plans and schemes. They learn to transform ideas into artifacts and action, personal achievement into community success.
Whether building something spectacular, swimming, hiking, playing ball, telling stories, or learning something new, we do it with a commitment to collaboration, curiosity, openness and sense of place.
Our tools are as much imagination and perseverance as drill press, dance, camera and fabric. Our 750 acres of twin lakes, fields and mountains are as much our workshop as our computer lab and wood shop. We put all of it to use to inspire creation, play, and teaching kids how to bring ideas to life.
