Creative Connections: London: Ealing


Creative Connections was a four year project (2012-2016) connecting young people in London with artists, to create new responses to the National Portrait Gallery's Collection. Each year, Creative Connections focused on a different London borough and explored the portraits, personalities and achievements of inspirational people in the Gallery's Collection associated with the selected borough. Each project included a high profile display at the Gallery accompanied by digital material.
