Summer Day Programs at Beam Center

Come explore this summer with Beam. Our faculty of artists, engineers, and craftspeople share their own practice with kids, from woodworking and electronics, to moviemaking, digital media, and handcraft. At our day camps, kids in grades 2 through 6 explore a single concept, theme, or raw material through different media and creative practices with Beam Center’s faculty. Campers have written plays, performed with life-size puppets, and built sensory installations and motion-controlled electric dioramas.

It’s an inclusive community focused on collaboration and experimentation.

Kids explore a single theme through different media with our faculty. Campers have written plays, performed with life-size puppets, and built motion-controlled electric dioramas. Each week is different.
