"It was a mixture of pride and shock."
Hear Coventry students share their experience of being involved in the Creative Connections Coventry exhibition at the Herbert Art Gallery.
Maryam Wahid has worked with the students over a series of workshops to explore ideas around identity, and taken new portraits of these students to document the future of Coventry.
These exciting portraits join 40 works from our Gallery's Collection and 40 from the Herbert Art Gallery's Collection in an exhibition celebrating the city of Coventry and the people that call it home: npg.org.uk/beyond/exhibitions/touring/creative-connections-coventry
Creative Connections is funded by National Lottery Heritage Fund, Art Fund, and with the generous support of the Palley family.
