A portrait project from 2014 – 10 years on and still looking great

A total of 528 portraits line the side of a walkway under the railway tracks in Lynn.

They are the product of a Raw Art Works project – Young artists took photos of various people in Lynn and then made portraits from those photos.  The portraits also include ones that the artists made of themselves.

Raw Artworks – whose mission statement includes the words; “to ignite the desire to create and confidence to succeed”.  It’s a program for youth that has been running in Lynn since 1994.

Photos were taken in July 2024
