How will the new museum benefit the people of Liverpool?
The new museum will build upon the success of the Museum of Liverpool Life and will continue the valuable work and relationships that we built up there with local people and community groups. The new visitor destination will be of international quality but will have its heart rooted in the local community. This museum has been designed around participation at all levels and both the content and the facilities within the museum will be informed by the needs and aspirations of the people who will become its main users. Through active learning, outreach, collecting and partnership programmes we aim to work to facilitate, and provide a platform and focal point for, showcasing local issues, talent and creative expression.
