Summer School 2010

Eyebeam’s annual Summer School program offers a lively mix of youth programs, master classes, public lectures, & hands-on workshops. This year’s program has been organized as part of our summer 2010 exhibition Re:Group: Beyond Models of Consensus showcases work that subverts existing systems or envisions new alternatives to the ways in which individuals can take part, or choose not to take part, in social and cultural life.
