New Faces, New Focus: Stories We Share is a collaborative touring exhibition by Open Eye Gallery, Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council, and Aberdeenshire Museums Service, part of the Art Fund's Going Places programme. It brings together new creative work, museum collections and archives celebrating communities across Liverpool City Region, Armagh and Aberdeenshire.

Themes include migration, heritage, personal milestones and cultural traditions.
