Beam Center brings the magic of our sleep away summer camp here to Brooklyn with our NYC summer day camp, Beam Camp City! Campers aged 8-15 are welcome to engage in large and small scale project making in our Red Hook shop, and connect with art and nature in and around our space on Governor’s Island. Activities include woodworking, instrument making, cardboard construction, sports, camper-led workshops and more!

At Beam Camp, we offer a robust program that guides campers through learning in collaborative and autonomous building and project making. Campers work together to build a spectacular large-scale construction that is installed on site at Beam Camp, and incorporates skills like metalworking, wood working, and more. In addition, campers work with shop specialists to design and build their own smaller scale creations, thinking critically about how the skills learned at Beam Camp can be applied in their communities outside of camp, while also enjoying classic camp activities like campfires, boating, swimming, capture the flag, hiking, gaga ball and more on hundreds of acres at the base of Parker Mountain in Strafford, NH.
