Working with Richard Neville and Emily Lawlor as Mappa, we ran workshops with a range of community groups in Portsmouth using the City Museum’s loans collection as a starting point. Over 100 participants were involved in creating imagery and sharing personal stories. The artwork produced in collaboration with participants was shown in a final exhibition at the Centre Gallery, Portsmouth City Museum then at Portsea Library. The project was run in collaboration with Portsmouth Museum and Records Office and supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
