Overview

Beam Camp is a sleepaway program for Making & Collaboration in Strafford, NH, offering a summer of Making, Building and Collaborating for kids and teens. Every session our campers and staff build a unique and spectacular large-scale collaborative Project that serves as the centerpiece of the Beam experience. Projects are chosen from dozens of proposals by artists, architects, and big thinkers in our annual international design competition. In the first and second week of the session, campers will participate in 90 minutes of Project Fundamentals each day. Project Fundamentals will include training in project management, structural design and the specific construction and fabrication methods, such as carpentry and metalwork, required for the Project.
