Beam Cen­ter is a Brook­lyn-based mak­er space that engages chil­dren, teens, teach­ers and artists in spec­tac­u­lar col­lab­o­ra­tive project-mak­ing. This year on Gov­er­nors Island, Beam Cen­ter is host­ing artists from a vari­ety of cre­ative prac­tices for mul­ti-week res­i­den­cies. Beam is thrilled to wel­come all artists to their com­mu­ni­ty, and to spend the sum­mer work­ing to col­lec­tive­ly fur­ther Beam Cen­ter’s cre­ative prac­tices on Gov­er­nors Island. Vis­it week­ends to view works in progress, meet the artists and more.
