About this organization
Mission
Beam Center’s mission is to crystallize self-directed growth through ambitious, collaborative project-making. We support and celebrate young people as producers of learning, culture and change who take bold steps towards meaningful futures and help guide compassionate, equitable, and vibrant communities. We use old and new tools, technologies, and craft to honor the individual voice, celebrate the joy of producing something larger than ourselves, and inspire lasting wonder. We value the exchange of knowledge, perspective, and experience between youth and professional creators. We share in the work of creating economic and educational equity for young New Yorkers who face systemic injustice.
