exhibiting our photographs

5 young people are displaying their photographs at the Herbert Art Gallery in Coventry alongside a Victoria & Albert Museum touring exhibition, from 16th September until 21st October.
None of the photographers had used a SLR camera before the project and only had one month to get their photographs taken. They then had to sort through the 100's of images to pick the best 30 to be exhibited. Once this was done we had to quickly learn how to mount and frame and curate, we had less than a week to do this.
On the 18th September the Herbert held a private viewing event, attended by lots of people as well as our photographers. The reception for our part of the show was very positive. We have set up a flickr website for those that can't physically visit the Herbert.
