About Us
Hi, my name is Brett and I am the Staff director for Beam Camp in New Hampshire.
At Beam Camp, youth aged 9-17 and staff learn to make their ideas a reality. Through fine and manual arts, technology, and collaboration, Beam Campers cultivate hands-on skills while exploring innovative thinking, design, and the creative process. We have a fully equipped woodshop, metal shop, fabrication lab, and an arts and craft barn ready for ceramics, sewing, painting and more. Campers spend a good portion of their day in those shops and making their own self-designed projects known as Independent Work projects. The centerpiece of camp is the large-scale Big Project. This is a project selected from an international open call, and incorporates elements of metalworking, woodworking, and related skills and practices.
This all takes place on hundreds of acres of forest and mountains with two lakes for swimming and boating, and plenty of space for physical activity hiking, sports, campfires, and more classic camp activities!
We are looking for staff to join us at Beam Camp this summer in several roles at our sleep-away summer camp in New Hampshire. Year round, we operate in Brooklyn, NY, but each summer we shuttle staff and campers up to camp to spend seven weeks building incredible things with the camp community and back to the city again in August.
