HighLow Project Exhibit and Reception

A photo exhibit on homeless youth that is gaining national attention is coming to Bennington, exhibiting audio recordings and images that tell the story of homeless youth in Vermont.

Vermont photographer Ned Castle collaborated with youth living in difficult circumstances across the state to re-enact and photograph high and low moments from their lives. The resulting large-scale photographs depict elaborate re-creations of these situations.
