CREATIVE GAP YEAR IN FRANCE - THEATRE, FILM, STUDIO ART, PHOTOGRAPHY, MUSIC
Creative Semester is a residential gap year program based in an 18th century chateau in the heart of Normandy, France. Explore your passion for Film, Studio Art, Theatre, or Music through lively classes, hands-on workshops, and focused studio practice. Led by practicing artists, this unique creative community is the perfect place to build skills and develop your craft. The program includes a range of excursions including D-Day landing sites, medieval Bayeux and Mont St. Michel—a monastery on a tidal island. Students will also spend a week exploring the art scene in Paris. Hands-on experiences such as breadmaking, visits to local cider and cheese makers, and trips to local French markets round out your experience of Normandy.
