Program Description:

The Brown Ledge Gap Year combines community living, work, U.S. travel and documentary production. It begins in Vermont with an intensive training in video, audio and digital photography. Armed with these skills, we will take a road trip to El Paso and from there to New Orleans. In each city we will live together, do half-time community service or internships and make individual documentaries.
