by Editor

Hop between the venues of National Museums Liverpool this Easter with exhibitions, events and workshops to keep the whole family busy.

A trip to Liverpool’s iconic waterfront isn’t complete without a visit to the museum. Start at the Maritime Museum, where a variety of events are marking 110 years since the tragic sinking of Titanic. Explore the stories of the world-famous ship, which continues to fascinate, through storytelling sessions, role-players, and object handling. Wondrous Place, a new gallery in Museum of Liverpool, is the perfect opportunity to be inspired by the incredible number of artists, writers, musicians, and sports people from the city. While the International Slavery Museum is host to a powerful immersive new display, Meet me at the River, by Migrant Artists Mutual Aid (MaMa).
