BEAM GUILDS

Call it the Beam Camp Core Curriculum. These are the tools and methods of making that we think Beam Campers should get to know and practice. Some will come in handy on the Project and some will be of use in campers’ Independent Projects. Over the course of the session, each camper will have the opportunity to rotate through Guilds or they can choose to just stay in one.

Our Guild spaces include:

  • Metal Shop: metal work, welding, casting

  • Woodshop: carpentry

  • Art Barn: textiles, knitting, sewing, ceramics

  • Fabrication Lab: 3D printing, laser cutting, circuitry, physical computing, coding, digital fabrication
