Education project: Image & Identity artwork 2005-6

The third year of Image & Identity culminated in a Young People’s Conference, a seminar for teachers, NCH staff, artists and co-ordinators involved in the project and a display at the V&A of selected artwork produced by young people from across the country. The Image & Identity display at the V&A ran from 16 March–12 April 2006. Each of the partner museums mounted Image & Identity displays in their own venues.
