In the first eduLAB, more than 60 students worked with Venezuelan-born artist Nadia Hernandez to find their own voice and tell their stories of place using card, colour, and drawing to create banners and cut-outs.

SAM's Alana Lee said Rochester was the first of about 15 schools to take part in the project which will see a growing exhibition to be displayed over the next five weeks.

Ms Lee said SAM visitors could also contribute individually to the exhibition by creating their own banners or cut-outs.

SAM's eduLAB exhibition continues until Sunday, May 3.
