Beam Center

Beam Center We build communities of making and learning that prepare young people for the way the world works.

Beam Center is a community of learning and discovery for young people aged 6-18. Guided by artists in technology, imagination and craft, young people develop much more than skills; they build their character, courage to think for themselves, and capacity for collaboration and invention. Beam Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that serves young people of all abilities and economic backgrounds.
