Beam Center seeks design proposals for an ambitious public artwork to be brought to life through collaborations between youth, Beam Camp staff, and the selected proposer. Projects will be realized by a community of more than 100 young people at Beam Camp in the summers of 2025 and 2026.
Beam Camp, located in Strafford, NH, is a specialized summer camp focused on building and collaboration. The award-winning program provides youth (ages 10-17) with the opportunity to develop hands-on skills while exploring innovative thinking, design, problem-solving, and the creative process.
Each year, Beam Camp invites proposals for unique and spectacular large-scale projects that serve as the centerpiece of its 29-day session, where they are constructed and brought to life by 100 campers and over 20 staff members. The Project Team collaborates with the winning designers to adapt their project designs to the camp setting. Beam Center prides itself on the high level of craftsmanship and skill reflected in these projects and in the work of its staff and campers. Interested designers are encouraged to explore past projects.
